S.O.J.A - Born in Babylon Chords

[Gm] I came from nothing [Bb] but not [Dm] nothing like nothing, [Gm] nothing
Like [Bb] nobody thought I was something, nothing
Like called every name in the book
[Eb] But for every second guess [Bb] I never gave a second look, [Gm] look
I tell myself [Bb] don't let it get to me
Cause if the best they got is not impressing me
Then there's no reason they should get the best of me
While [Eb] they were reaming at my words [F] they miss the rest of me, [Eb] see
So how [F] can I stop [Gm] all these [Dm] critics from [Bb] their [Eb] talking?
The more [F] I do the more [Gm] they say
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ But there's [F] no way I'm stopping
[Gm] _ So they just keep [C] on talking
[Eb] And who do [Bb] you [F] think I think [Gm] I am? _ _ _ _ _
_ The feeling [F] that there's more like me
[Gm] Born in Babylon but [Dm] you just got to be free
[Gm] _ Shackles on your [Bb] feet that you and me can't [Eb] see
But you can feel them and they heavy [Bb] so you need that key
[Eb] And so you're looking [Dm] at your hands saying man
[Eb] If I ditch this system [Bb] these could be mine _
[Gm] But then you hear a voice [B] come up from behind
Don't [Eb] even think about stepping [Bb] out of line _ _
[Eb] _ So [Bb] how can I stop all [Gm] these [Dm] critics from [F] their [Eb] talking?
[Bb] The more [F] I do the more they [Gm] say
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[Eb] But [F] there's no way I'm stopping
[Gm] _ So they [F] just keep on talking
[Eb] And who do [F] you think I think [Gm] I am?
Who do you think I am?
_ _ _ [C] _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
[Gm] _ _ _ [Eb] _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[Gm] _ _ _ [C] _ [Bb] _ _ [Dm] _ _
[Gm] _ _ _ [C] _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[G] My friends are deep in there all I've got
They stand up behind me if you like it or not
And I'm telling you that's the fire side
Can you [N] see that smoke and did you hear that shot?
Cause there's some [Gm] war in the [Am] middle I am
So [Gm] judge me now with your [F] pen and can
[Eb] Cause I'm too busy [Dm] to judge another man
I'm trying to write the [Gm] blueprint for all the world to understand
[Eb] And [Bb] how [F] can [Bb] I stop all [Gm] these [Dm] critics [Bb] from their talking?
[Eb] The [F] more I do the more [Bb] they say
[F] The more they say
[Eb] But [Bb] there's no [F] way I'm stopping
[Gm] So they [Dm] just keep on [F] [Eb] talking
And who do [F] you think I think [Gm] I am?
[Dm] Who do [F] you think I am?
[Gm] _ How [F] can I stop all [Gm] these [Bb] critics from their [Gm] talking?
_ [F] The more I do the more they [Gm] say
[Bb] _ _ _ [F] It won't stop, [Eb] it won't [Bb] stop, it won't stop
So baby I'm [F] stopping _
[Gm] _ So you can just keep [Bb] on [Eb] talking
_ [F] Trying to save this world just cause
[Bb] _ And maybe we were right at the start
Maybe I should not be [F] myself
But I'm [Gm] just giving these [Bb] critics help
[C] And it makes [Eb] me twist my [Bb] stomach in half
[F] And my [Gm] friend in his pen are putting me in through the [F] same breath
[Eb] If I never tried to do this [F] at all
Then I [Gm] think he'd be out of [Bb] a job
[F] And maybe [Eb] I just should've stayed [F] in bed
Stay out [Gm] of the booth and put all these guitars [F] in the closet
[Eb] Maybe I should go back [F] to school
But anymore [Gm] _ education just [F] makes me feel like a fool
[Eb] So I guess I gotta let critics [F] talk
Cause I
