(Capo 1st fret)
   G G D add4  G
                                       G
            By the rivers of Babylon
                                   G
            Where he sat down
                                   D        add4
            And there he wept
                                                  G
            When he remembered Zion

                                                      G
                    Oh 'fore the wicked carry us away captivity
                         C                          G
                    Requireth from us a song
                    G
                    How can we sing King Alpha's song
                           D           G
                    In a strange land?

                                               G                    D
                               So let the words of our mouth
                                                     G                   D
                               And the meditation of our heart
                                        G                       D      (pause)
                               Be acceptable in thy sight
                                        G
                               Over I
                                                 *Solo*    (intro)

            By the rivers of Babylon
            Where he sat down
            And there he wept
            When he remembered Zion

                    Oh 'fore the wicked carry us away captivity
                    Requirth from us a song
                    How can we sing King Alpha's song
                    In a strange land?

                    How can we sing King Alpha's song
                           D           G
                    In a strange land?
