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: G5 C5 x2

Verse 1:

G5                               C5                               G5  C5
Friday night, I'm going nowhere, all the lights are changing green to red
   G5                            C5                         G5    C5
I'm turning all the TV stations, situations running through my head
G5                                  C5
Looking back through time and it's clear that I've been blind, I've been a
G5   C5
fool
        G5                           C5                         G5    C5
To ever open up my heart to all the jealousy, the bitterness, the ridicule

Chorus:
G5                D5             E5                C5
Well, if you want it, come n' get it, for crying out loud
G5            D5          E5             C5
The love that I was giving you was never in doubt
G5              D5                  E5             C5
Let go of your heart, let go of your head and feel it now
G5              D5                  E5             C5
Let go of your heart, let go of your head and feel it now

Saturday, I'm running wild, all the lights are changing red to green
G5                                     C5
Moving through the crowd, I'm pushing chemicals, they're rushing through my
G5            C5
blood stream
  G5                           C5                          G5     C5
I wish that you were here, I'm saying it so clear, I've been afraid
   G5                           C5                                    G5
To tell you how I really feel; admit to some of those bad mistakes I've made

Sunday all the lights of London shining, sky is fading red to blue
    G5
I'm kicking through the autumn leaves
    C5                              G5        C5
And wondering where it is you might be going to
    G5                                   C5                      G5   C5
I'm turning back for home, you know I'm feeling so alone, I can't believe
G5                              C5
Climbing on the stair, I turn around to see you smiling there
  G5           C5
In front of me

Repeat Chorus(minus the "babylons")
G5              D5                  E5              C5
Let go of your heart, let go of your head and feel it now x2
