verse:
G
By the rivers of babylon
G
Where he sat down
D
and there he wept
G
when he remembered Zion


chorus:

oh 'fore the wicked
G
carry us away captivity
C
required from us a song
G
how can we sing King Alfa's song
D
In a strange land

(This part just goes from G to D)
so let the words of our mouth

and the meditation of our heart

be acceptable in thy sight
N.C. G
override

(repeat opening riff)

(play verse)

(now play chorus)

G
how can we sing King Alfa's song
D
in a strange land
