By the rivers of babylon
Where he sat down
And there he went
When he remembered Zion
Alpha the wicked, carrry us away
captivity requirs from us a song
how can we sing kind alpha's song in a strange land
so let the words of our mouth
and the meditations of our heart
be exceptable in thy sight (strum D and then pause)
over I (do not play anything at "over" and resume playing at "I")
