{comment: Verse 1}
[C]From the Gulf of [F]Aden, to the marble [C]coast
To the rolling [F]hills of [G]Oregon[C]
And the Tigris [F]River and the wind that [C]blows
In the hanging [F]bowers of [G]Babylon[C]

{comment: Chorus}
{start_of_chorus}
I'm a fool for [F]giving all that I [C]gave
To you pitiful [F]people when the world was [G]made
And if I come back [F]down from the stars [C]above
It's just to watch the [F]mating [G]of the [C]doves
{end_of_chorus}

{comment: Verse 2}
I was there in [F]Egypt when your king was [C]slain
And it made me [F]cry a [G]million [C]tears
And it formed a [F]river in a western [C]state
And it carved a [F]canyon [G]through the [C]years

{start_of_chorus}
And I'm a fool for [F]giving all that I [C]gave
To you pitiful [F]people when the world was [G]made
And if I come back [F]down from the stars [C]above
It's just to watch the [F]mating [G]of the [C]doves
{end_of_chorus}

{comment: Verse 3}
So you can preach of [F]Heaven and you can warn of [C]Hell
And you can murder [F]millions [G]in my [C]name
But I gave you [F]Heaven and the only [C]Hell
Is the one you [F]made from [G]fear and [C]hate

{comment: Outro Chorus}
{start_of_chorus}
You're all fools for [F]thinking that I'm coming [C]back
For some fiery [F]judgement and turn the world to [G]black
And if I come back [F]down it's not to judge but [C]love
And to be among the [F]mating [G]of the [C]doves
{end_of_chorus}
