D                       
Friday night I'm going nowhere
G                                        D   G
All the lights are changing green to red
D                         
Turning over TV stations
G                                   D    G
Situations running through my head
D
Looking back through time
              G                     
You know it's clear that I've been blind
                D G
I've been a fool
D
To open up my heart
            G                               D       G      Em
To all that jealousy, that bitterness, that ridicule


D
Saturday I'm running wild
G                                         D   G
And all the lights are changing red to green
D
Moving through the crowd I'm pushing  
G                                           D  G
Chemicals all rushing in  my bloodstream
D
Only wish that you were here
              G
You know I'm seeing it so clear
                  D   G
I've been afraid
D
To show you how I really feel
G                            D                 G
Admit to some of those bad mistakes I've made

D               A
If you want it
                Em
Come and get it
             A    D
Crying out loud
                  A
The love that I was
            Em
Giving you was
          G    D
Never in doubt
            A
Let go of your heart
            Em
Let go of your head
            A   D
And feel it now
            A
Let go of your heart
            Em
Let go of your head
           G
And feel it now

         D    G    
Babylon, 
         D    G
Babylon, 
         D    G
Babylon

Sunday all the lights of London
Shining sky is fading red to blue

Kicking through the Autumn leaves
And wondering where it is you might be going to
Turning back for home
You know I'm feeling so alone
I can't believe
Climbing on the stair
I turn around to see you smiling there
In front of me

If you want it
Come and get it
Crying out loud
The love that I was
Giving you was
Never in doubt

Let go of your heart
Let go of your head
And feel it now

Let go of your heart
Let go of your head
And feel it now

Let go of your heart
Let go of your head
And feel it now

Let go of your heart
Let go of your head
And feel it now

         D      G  
Babylon, 
         D      G
Babylon, 
         D      G
Babylon, 
         D      G
Babylon
