Soja - Born In Babylon (LYRICS ON SCREEN) Chords

_ [Gm] I came from nothing but [Bb] not nothing like nothing, [Gm] nothing
Like [Bb] nobody thought I was something, nothing
Like called every name in the book
[Eb] But for every second guess I [Bb] never gave a second look, [Gm] look
I tell myself don't [Bb] let it get to me
[Gm] Cause if the best they got is [Bb] not impressing me
Then there's no reason they should get the best of me
While [Eb] they were reaming at my words they [Dm] miss the rest of me, [Eb] see
So [Bb] how can [F] I [Gm] stop all these [Dm] critics from their [C]
talking?
[Eb] The [F] more I do the more they [Gm] say
_ _ [F] _ _ _
_ [Eb] But there's no [F] [Bb] way I'm stopping
[Gm] So they just [C] keep on talking
[Eb] Who do [Bb] you [F] think I think [Gm] I am? _ _ _ _ _
_ I got the feeling [Dm] that there's more like me
[Eb] Born in Babylon but [B] you just got to be free
[Bb] Shackles on your feet that you and me can't see
But [Eb] you can feel them and they heavy [Bb] so you need that key
[Cm] And so you're looking [Dm] at your hands saying man
[Gm] If I did this this and these could be mine _
But then you hear a voice [F] come up from behind
Don't [Eb] even think about stepping out [F] of line _
_ [Eb] _ So how [Dm] can [Bb] I stop all [Gm] these _ [Bb] critics from their talking?
[Eb] _ [Bb] The more [F] I do the more they [Gm] say
_ [F] _ _ _ _
[Eb] But _ [Bb] there's no way I'm [F] stopping
[Gm] _ So they [Bb] [F] just keep on [Eb] talking
Who do [F] you think I think [Gm] I am?
Who do you think I _ _ _ _ [C] _ [Bb] _ _ [Dm] _
_ [Gm] _ _ _ [C] _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ [Gm] _ _ _ [C] _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ [Gm] _ _ _ [C] _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
am?
My friends are deep and they're all I've got
They [F] stand up behind me if you like it or not
And I'm telling you that's a fire sight
Can you see that smoke and did you hear that [Gm] shot?
Cause it's a war and in [Am] the middle I am
[Gm] So judge me now with your [F] pen and can
[Eb] Cause I'm too busy [Dm] to judge another man
I'm trying to write the blueprint for all the world to [Eb] understand
[Bb] How [F] can [Bb] I stop all [Gm] these [Dm] critics [Gm] from their talking?
[Eb] _ The [F] more I do the more they [Gm] _ [Bb] say
[F] The more they say
[Eb] But [Bb] there's [F] no way I'm [Gm] stopping
So [Bb] they just keep [F] on talking
[Eb] Who do [F] you think I think [Gm] I am?
[Dm] Who do [F] you think I [Eb] am?
[Bb] How can [F] I stop all [Gm] these critics from their talking?
_ [F] The more I [Bb] do the more [Gm] they say
_ _ [F] It won't stop [Eb] the talk
There's no [Bb] way I'm [F] stopping
[Gm] _ So they just keep [F] on [Eb] talking
_ [Bb] Trying to say this word just [F] got [Bb] me caught
And maybe you were right down the start
Maybe I should not be _ [F] myself
Cause I'm [Gm] just giving these [Bb] critics help
[C] And it makes [Eb] me twist my stomach [Bb] in half
[F]
If I [Gm] handed his pen a putty and do the [F] same breath
[Eb] If I never tried to [Bb] do this at [F] all
Then I [Gm] think he'd be out [Bb] of a job
[F]
And maybe [Eb] I just should have stayed [F] in bed
Stay [Gm] out of the booth and put all these guitars [F] in the [Eb] closet
Maybe I should go back [F] to school
But [Gm] anymore education just makes [Bb] me [F] feel like a fool
[Eb] So I guess I gotta let [F] critics talk
Cause I [Gm] won't stop
