[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D G
In man’s fear of isolation what was once a Indian nation
D A
Is crowed now with people like so many grains of sand
D G
Livin’ stacked upon each other, scared to death of one another
D A D
Forgetin’ we're all brothers forgettin' God’s command
[Chorus]
G D
Lookin’ out my hotel window forty floors above the ground
G D A
Get me out of this tower of Babel before the good Lord pulls it down
D G D
Jesus I can’t feel your presence, are you anywhere around
A D
Or did we all go off and leave you in our little old home town
[Verse 2]
D G
Lord above how it must hurt you for your children to desert you
D A
Like a little town in Kansas or them Arkansas cotton fields
D G
The only place I’ve seen you mentioned is the sign above the mission
D A D
Jesus saves but no one listens all they want's a good hot meal
[Interlude]
D
[Verse 3]
D G
Gideon Bible on the table, tried to read but I wasn’t able
D A
So I turned on the TV and watched the news on channel five
D G
What I saw filled me with pity: poverty, crime, and misery
D A D
In this great, big Godless city where they're strugglin' to survive
[Chorus]
G D
Lookin’ out my hotel window forty floors above the ground
G D A
Get me out of this tower of Babel before the good Lord pulls it down
D G D
Jesus I can’t feel your presence, are you anywhere around
A D
Or did we all go off and leave you in our little old home town
[Chorus]
G D
Lookin’ out my hotel window forty floors above the ground
G D A
Get me out of this tower of Babel before the good Lord pulls it down
D G D
Jesus I can’t feel your presence, are you anywhere around
A D
Or did we all go off and leave you in our little old home town
[Outro]
G D
Lookin’ out my hotel window forty floors above the ground
G D A
Get me out of this tower of Babel before the good Lord pulls it down
D G D
Jesus I can’t feel your presence, are you anywhere around
A D
Or did we all go off and leave you in our little old home town
