Band:Sublime
Song:Rivers of Babylon
Album:40 Oz. to Freedom
Tabbed By:Michael Choy

This is a great acoustic tune off the 40 oz album.  Originally recorded with
two guitars, it sounds awesome with a solo acoustic.

Only pay attention to the tab for the two verses where I notate G-intro, A/Cmaj7/D-intro, etc. 

Where the line stops after the underscore, that's where the [G-intro] ends as a measure.







[Intro]



[G-intro] By the Rivers of Babylon,

[G-intro] Where he sat down.

[A/Cmaj7/D-intro] And there he went,

[Intro-3] When he remembered [G2] Zion.



For the wicked, [G] carry us away

Captivity, [C] require from us a [G] song.

How can we sing King [C?] Alpha’s song in a [D] strange [G] land? 



So let the [G] words of our [C] mouth,

And the [G] meditations of our [C] hearts

Be [G] acceptable in thy [C] sight [stop]

[A capella] Over [G] I 



[Intro]



[G-intro] By the Rivers of Babylon,

[G-intro]Where he sat down.

[A/Cmaj7/D-intro] And there he went,

[Intro-3] When he remembered [G] Zion.



[A capella] For the wicked, [G] carry us away

Captivity, [C] require from us a [G] song

How can we sing King [C?] Alpha’s song in a [D] strange land? [G]
