nina nesbitt’s cover of david gray’s babylon :
awesome song , i really enjoyed it . pretty simple chords .
i strongly recommend finger – picking this song , it just doesn’t sound right if you strum
it . just mess around for a bit it’s a pretty simple picking pattern .

G Cadd9 G Cadd9
friday night , i’m going nowhere , all the lights are changing green to red
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
i’m turning all the tv stations , situations running through my head
G Cadd9
looking back through time and it’s clear that i’ve been blind , i’ve been A

G Cadd9 G Cadd9
to ever open up my heart to all the jealousy , the bitterness , the ridicule

saturday , i’m running wild , all the lights are changing red to green

moving through the crowd , i’m pushing chemicals , they’re rushing through my

blood stream
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
i wish that you were here , i’m saying it so clear , i’ve been afraid

to tell you how i really feel; admit to some of those bad mistakes i’ve made
Cadd9

G Cadd9 G Cadd9
sunday all the lights of london shining , sky is fading red to blue

i’m kicking through the autumn leaves
Cadd9 G Cadd9
and wondering where it is you might be going to
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
i’m 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
G Cadd9
in front of me
