Is It Like Today
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
Beautiful green fields and dreams and he learned to measure
E minorEm
the Stars.
G+G D MajorD A minorAm
But there was a worry in his heart
A minorAm D MajorD A minorAm

A minorAm D MajorD A minorAm

G+G D MajorD A minorAm

He comes face to face with God
He said "how could it come to this ?
I'm really worried about my creation
How could it come to this ?
You're really killing me you know"
Is it like today ? Oh, ooh
Is it like today? Oh, ooh
Many years ago man looked out through a glassless window
Didn't understand much, but he saw
