EM D
This shining city built of gold, a far cry from innocence,

There's more than meets the eye round here, look to the waters of the deep.

A city of evil.
EM D
There sat a seven-headed beast, ten horns raised from his head.

Symbolic woman sits on his throne, but hatred strips her and leaves her naked.
C D B D
The Beast and the Harlot.
[Chorus]
G D EM C
She's a dwelling place for demons.

She's a cage for every unclean spirit,

Every filthy bird and makes us drink
G D C
The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings.
C B D EM
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.
