Lyrics
By the waters of Babylon,
(Bb)there (C7)we (F)sat (A7)us (Dm)down
and wept when we remembered (Gm)thee,
(C7)oh, (F)Zion.
(F)As for our harps, we hanged them (Faug)up (F6)on the (Bbm)willow (F)trees,
for (Dm)they that had (C7)brought us to (C)misery (A7)asked of us a (Bb)joyful song.
(C7)Yea, they did (F)speak to us with (Bb)mocking (A7)words:
(D)"Sing us now, sing us one of the (G)songs (D)of (A7)(D)Zion!"
(Bm)Then we (E7)did (A)answer:
(D)"How can we (G)sing to (D)you,
how (G)can (D)we sing (G)our (D)glad (Bm)songs in a (E7)strange (A7)land?"
(D7)(Gm)Jerusalem, if I should (C)forget thee,
(Em7)oh, (F13)(Bbm)Jerusalem, (F)then, then (D7)(Gm)let my (C7)right (F)hand (Gm)forget her (C6)(F)cunning.
