[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
DIn man’s fear of isolation what was Gonce a Indian nation
DIs crowed now with people like so Amany grains of sand
DLivin’ stacked upon each other, Gscared to death of one another
DForgetin’ we're all brothers Aforgettin' God’s Dcommand
[Chorus 1]
Lookin’ Gout my hotel window forty Dfloors above the ground
Get me out of this tower of Babel Abefore the good Lord pulls it down
Jesus DI can’t feel your presence, are you Ganywhere around
Or did we Dall go off and leave you Ain our little old Dhome town
[Verse 2]
DLord above how it must hurt you for your Gchildren to desert you
DLike a little town in Kansas or them AArkansas cotton fields
DThe only place I’ve seen you mentioned is Gthe sign above the mission
Jesus Dsaves but no one listens all they Awant's a good Dhot meal
[Interlude]
D
[Verse 3]
DGideon Bible on the table, tried toG read but I wasn’t able
DSo I turned on the TV and watched the Anews on channel five
DWhat I saw filled me with pity: Gpoverty, crime, and misery
In this Dgreat, big Godless city where Athey're strugglin' to Dsurvive
[Chorus 2]
Lookin’ Gout my hotel window forty Dfloors above the ground
Get me out of this tower of Babel Abefore the good Lord pulls it down
Jesus DI can’t feel your presence, are you Ganywhere around
Or did we Dall go off and leave you Ain our little old Dhome town
[Chorus 3]
Lookin’ Gout my hotel window forty Dfloors above the ground
Get me out of this tower of Babel Abefore the good Lord pulls it down
Jesus DI can’t feel your presence, are you Ganywhere around
Or did we Dall go off and leave you Ain our little old Dhome town
[Outro]
Lookin’ Gout my hotel window forty Dfloors above the ground
Get me out of this tower of Babel Abefore the good Lord pulls it down
Jesus DI can’t feel your presence, are you Ganywhere around
Or did we Dall go off and leave you Ain our little old Dhome town
