Babylon Chords

(ver. 1)
Nina Nesbitt
CAPO 1; All chords relative to capo
Nina Nesbitt's cover of David Gray's Babylon:
Awesome song, I really enjoyed it. Pretty simple chords.
I strongly recommend finger-picking this song, it just doesn't sound right if you strum 
it. Just mess around for a bit it's a pretty simple picking pattern.

Intro: G Cadd9 x2

Verse 1:

G                               Cadd9                               G  Cadd9
Friday night, I'm going nowhere, all the lights are changing green to red
   G                            Cadd9                         G    Cadd9
I'm turning all the TV stations, situations running through my head
G                                  Cadd9
Looking back through time and it's clear that I've been blind, I've been a
G   Cadd9
fool
        G                           Cadd9                         G    Cadd9
To ever open up my heart to all the jealousy, the bitterness, the ridicule

Chorus:
G                D/F#             Em7                Cadd9
Well, if you want it, come n' get it, for crying out loud
G            D/F#          Em7             Cadd9
The love that I was giving you was never in doubt
G              D/F#                  Em7             Cadd9
Let go of your heart, let go of your head and feel it now
G              D/F#                  Em7             Cadd9
Let go of your heart, let go of your head and feel it now
       G  Cadd9          G  Cadd9
Babylon      mmmm, Babylon

Verse 2:
G                          Cadd9                              G      Cadd9
Saturday, I'm running wild, all the lights are changing red to green
G                                     Cadd9
Moving through the crowd, I'm pushing chemicals, they're rushing through my
G            Cadd9
blood stream
  G                           Cadd9                          G     Cadd9
I wish that you were here, I'm saying it so clear, I've been afraid
   G                           Cadd9                                    G
To tell you how I really feel; admit to some of those bad mistakes I've made
 Cadd9

Repeat Chorus

Verse 3:
G                               Cadd9                         G    Cadd9
Sunday all the lights of London shining, sky is fading red to blue
    G
I'm kicking through the autumn leaves
    Cadd9                              G        Cadd9
And wondering where it is you might be going to
    G                                   Cadd9                      G   Cadd9
I'm turning back for home, you know I'm feeling so alone, I can't believe
G                              Cadd9
Climbing on the stair, I turn around to see you smiling there
  G           Cadd9
In front of me

Repeat Chorus(minus the "babylons")
G              D/F#                  Em7              Cadd9
Let go of your heart, let go of your head and feel it now x2
       G
