Babylon Song

It's going to be kind of difficult to figure this one out because of all the variations 
fills that Jonny does but I'll tab out the main idea so you can play around with it a bit.

Standard Tuning EADG

Intro:

pause for guitar and come in for "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, poh!"

G|--------------------------------------------------------|
D|------------------------------------9-9-9--7-7-7--5-5-5-|
A|-7-7-7--7-9-7---7-7-7--7-9-7----------------------------|
E|------7--------------7--------7-7-7---------------------|

G|----------------------------------------------------------| x1
D|------------------------------------9-9-9--13-14-16-17-16-|
A|-7-7-7--7-9-7---7-7-7--7-9-7------------------------------|
E|------7--------------7--------7-7-7-----------------------|


Verse: Like I shouldve known...

G|--------------------------------------------------------| x2
D|------------------------------------9-9-9--7-7-7--5-5-5-|
A|-7-7-7--7-9-7---7-7-7--7-9-7----------------------------|

G|--------------------------------------------------------| x2

A|-7-7-7--7-9-7---7-7-7--7-9-7----------------------------|
E|------7--------------7--------7-7-7---------------------|


Chorus: Woah, Woah, that's the sound of the babylon comin now...

G|--------------------------------------------------------| x4
D|------------------------------------9-9-9--7-7-7--5-5-5-|
A|-7-7-7--7-9-7---7-7-7--7-9-7----------------------------|
E|------7--------------7--------7-7-7---------------------|


Verse: Don't believe their lies...

G|----------------------------------------------| mix up the rythm
D|-------9------------9-------------------------|
A|-7-7-7----7-7--7--7---7---------9--10--9----9-|
E|---------------------------7-7-7--7---7--7-7--|

For this part i made my own fill, you can do whatever.

G|---------------------------------------------------------| x1
D|------------------------------------9--7-10--9-7-9--7-7h9|
A|-7-7-7--7-9-7---7-7-7--7-9-7-----------------------------|
E|------7--------------7--------7-7-7----------------------|

!!!Play this whole thing Twice!!!


Breakdown: (Short quick and spaced out notes)

G|-------------------------------------------------| x2
D|-14--14--14---14-16-16-16-16---------------------|
A|------------------------------14--14--14---14-16-|
E|-------------------------------------------------|

On the last time you can slide from the 15th on the e string instead of the last two notes.


Chorus: Woah, Woah, that's the sound of the babylon comin now...

G|--------------------------------------------------------| x4
D|------------------------------------9-9-9--7-7-7--5-5-5-|
A|-7-7-7--7-9-7---7-7-7--7-9-7----------------------------|
E|------7--------------7--------7-7-7---------------------|


Bridge: And say, if only for today... (not sure about that)

G|-------------------------------------------------|------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|----------------------9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9---------------9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-|
E|-15\--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-----------------7-7-7-7-7-7-7-----------------|

G|-----------------| x1  ~ means to hold note (more there are, longer held)
D|-----------------|
A|--------9~-------|
E|-7~~----------7~-|

That is not the right rythm because It's quite difficult to tab but when you play it 
with the song, and follow the beat and the guitar it'll sound perfectly fine.


Verse:

G|--------------------------------------------------------| x2
D|------------------------------------9-9-9--7-7-7--5-5-5-|
A|-7-7-7--7-9-7---7-7-7--7-9-7----------------------------|

E|------7--------------7--------7-7-7---------------------|

G|----------------------------------------------------------| x1
D|------------------------------------9-9-9--13-14-16-17-16-|
A|-7-7-7--7-9-7---7-7-7--7-9-7------------------------------|

D|--------------------------------------------------|
A|-7~-------------------7~--------------------------|
E|-----7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7------7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7---------|

Look at the writing under the bridge to see how its played because I had the same issues 
the last chorus as I did with the bridge.

End On
