verse:
By the rivers of [G]babylon
Where he sat [G]down
and there he [D]wept
when he remembered [G]Zion
chorus:
oh 'fore the wicked (this might actually be 'It was the wicked' but
I'm not sure)
[G]carry us away captivity
re[C]quired from us a song
[G]how can we sing King Alfa's song
In a s[D]trange land[G]
so let the [G]words of our [D]mouth
and the medita[G]tion of our [D]heart
G D now mute strings
be acceptable in thy sight
override [G](I'm not sure this line is right, any suggestions?)
repeat opening riff
play verse
now play chorus
[G]how can we sing King Alfa's song
in a [D]strange land[G]
well that's about it, thanks
