[Verse 1]
Em          A               G                B
Turn around go back down go back the way you came
Em                A                 G                       B
Can't you see the flash of fire ten times brighter than the day
Em             A           Em            B
And behold the mighty city broken in the dust again
Em         A             Em            B    Em
Oh God the pride of man, broken in the dust again
 
 
[Verse 2]
Em          A               G                B
Turn around go back down go back the way you came
Em         A             G              A      B
Babylon is laid to waste Egypt's buried in her shame
B     Em             A               Em                      B
Their mighty men are beaten down the kings are fallen in the ways
Em          A            G             B    Em
Oh God--the pride of man broken in the dust again
 
 
[Verse 3]
Em          A               Em               B
Turn around go back down go back the way you came
Em           A                    G           B
Terror is on everyside though the leaders are dismayed
Em                  A                G          B              Em
Those who put their faith in fire in fire their faith shall be repaid
Em          A            Em            B
Oh God--the pride of man broken in the dust again
Em          A               G                B
Turn around go back down go back the way you came
 
 
[Verse 4]
Em              A              Em                B
Shout a warning to the nations that the sword of God is raised
B  Em           A           G                B
On Babylon that mighty city rich in treasure wide in fame
Em                 A                  G            B
It shall cause thy towers to fall and make it be a pyre of flame
Em         A            G             B    Em
Oh God the pride of man broken in the dust again
 
 
[Verse 5]
Em                 A          G                B
Thou that dwell on many water rich in treasure wide in fame
Em         A               G                    B
Bow unto a God of gold thy pride of might shall be thy shame
Em          A            G             B
Oh God--the pride of man broken in the dust again
Em          A            G             B
Oh God--the pride of man broken in the dust again
