Up From Under
by: Anthony
Capo 1st fret
DWell I'm down here in the well
Looking back up at the hillG  
DWell I thank heavens I fell
Must look more like myselfG  
Now everyone is so kindD  
Everyone Alooks like a lGong lost frDiend of mine
GI'm on top of the world Dagain
When I'm lAooking up from under BGabylonD  
I had a home in the fields
Earned my wage in the factories there
And I was raised by the mill
And I worked with my brothers there
I told my mother I'd always write
I headed west for the coast with the big city lights
Now mamma I'm so sorry I've forgotten
But now I'm looking up from under Babylon
GmNow tell me how far I've been
AAnd how deep was I inG  D  
GmTell me how I conceived
AThe vanity to believeG  D  
That I would Emnot be outnumberedD  
By the thumbs EI have been unGderA  
Now stray dogs in the street
Learn how to beg, steal, borrow and cheat
And in the dead summer heat I fell asleep with blood on my teeth
But those days before I met you girl
Were just ice cream falling down  on the shoes of my world
I'm so happy that you're my friend
When we're looking  up from under Babylon
When we're looking up from under Babylon

Up From Under

by: Anthony

Capo 1st fret

Well I'm down here in the well

Looking back up at the hill

Well I thank heavens I fell

Must look more like myself

Now everyone is so kind

A G D

Everyone looks like a long lost friend of mine

G D

I'm on top of the world again

A G D

When I'm looking up from under Babylon

I had a home in the fields

Earned my wage in the factories there

And I was raised by the mill

And I worked with my brothers there

I told my mother I'd always write

I headed west for the coast with the big city lights

Now mamma I'm so sorry I've forgotten

But now I'm looking up from under Babylon

Now tell me how far I've been

A G D

And how deep was I in

Tell me how I conceived

A G D

The vanity to believe

Em D

That I would not be outnumbered

E G A

By the thumbs I have been under

Now stray dogs in the street

Learn how to beg, steal, borrow and cheat

And in the dead summer heat I fell asleep with blood on my teeth

But those days before I met you girl

Were just ice cream falling down on the shoes of my world

I'm so happy that you're my friend

When we're looking up from under Babylon
