Eliza Gilkyson - Is It Like Today
INTRO: G+G D MajorD A minorAm
G+G D MajorD A minorAm E minorEm
Many years ago he looked out through a glassless window
G+G D MajorD A minorAm
All that he could see was Babylon
G+G D MajorD A minorAm E minorEm
Beautiful green fields and dreams and learn to measure the stars
G+G D MajorD A minorAm
But there was a worry in his heart
CHORUS:
He said,
D MajorD A minorAm
"How could it come to this?
D MajorD A minorAm
I'm really worried about living
D MajorD A minorAm
How could it come to this?
D MajorD C majorC
Yeah, I really want to know about this"
G+G D MajorD A minorAm E minorEm
Then there came a time it moved out 'cross the Mediterranean
G+G D MajorD A minorAm
Came to western isles and the Greek young men
G+G D MajorD A minorAm E minorEm
With their silver beards they laughed at the unknown of the universe
G+G D MajorD A minorAm
They could just sit and guess god's name
CHORUS:
But they said,
D MajorD A minorAm
"How could it come to this?
D MajorD A minorAm
I'm really worried about living
D MajorD A minorAm
How could it come to this?
D MajorD C majorC
Yeah, I really want to know about this"
G+G D MajorD A minorAm E minorEm
Then there came a time of Kings, Empires and revolution
G+G D MajorD A minorAm
Blood just looks the same when you open the vein
G+G D MajorD A minorAm E minorEm
Sometimes it was faith, power or reason as the cornerstone
G+G D MajorD A minorAm
But the furrowed brow has never left his face
CHORUS:
He says,
D MajorD A minorAm
"How could it come to this?
D MajorD A minorAm
I'm really worried about living
D MajorD A minorAm
How could it come to this?
D MajorD C majorC
Yeah, I really want to know about this"
INSTRUMENTAL: G+G D MajorD A minorAm E minorEm G+G D MajorD A minorAm (2x)
CHORUS:
D MajorD A minorAm
How could it come to this?
D MajorD A minorAm
We've been living in a landslide
D MajorD A minorAm
How could it come to this?
D MajorD C majorC
Yeah, I really want to know about this
G+G D MajorD A minorAm E minorEm
Then there came a time, man packed up, moved off from the planet
G+G D MajorD A minorAm
He went to the moon, took a load
G+G D MajorD A minorAm E minorEm
Now he's out in space, hey-hey, fixing all the problems
G+G D MajorD A minorAm
He comes face to face with god
CHORUS:
He says,
D MajorD A minorAm
"How could it come to this?
D MajorD A minorAm
I'm really worried about my creation
D MajorD A minorAm
How could it come to this?
D MajorD C majorC
Yeah, I really want to know about this"
OUTRO: (## fade to end ##)

G+G D MajorD A minorAm
Is it like today? Hey heey
Is it like today? Woo woo
