Lyrics Avenged Sevenfold - Beast And The Harlot

intro
( Fm# Dm C# C Fm C# Am# A D)


(D) This shining city built of gold, a far cry from innocence
There's more than meets the eye round here
look to the waters of the deep.
A (Bb) city of evil (G G# A A# )
(D) There sat a seven-headed beast, ten horns raised from his head
Symbolic woman sits on his thrown
but hatred strips her and leaves her naked.
The (Bb) Beast and the Harlot. (G G# A A# A A# B C )

(F) She's a (C) dwelling place for (Bb) demons,
she's a (F) cage for every (C) unclean spirit (Bb) every filthy bird
And makes us (Gm) drink the poisoned (F) wine to forni(C)cating with our (Bb)kings.
Fallen now is (A)Babylon the (Dm)Great.

(Dm) The city dressed in jewels and gold, fine linen, Myrrh and pearls
Her plagues will come all at once as her mourners watch her burn.
Des(Bb)troyed in an hour (G G# A A# )
(Dm) Merchants and captains of the world, sailors navigators too
Will weep and mourn this loss with her sins piled to the sky
The (Dm) Beast and the Harlot. (G G# A A# A A# B C )

(F) She's a (C) dwelling place for (Bb) demons,
she's a (F) cage for every (C) unclean spirit (Bb) every filthy bird
And makes us (Gm) drink the poisoned (F) wine to forni(C)cating with our (Bb)kings.
Fallen now is (A)Babylon the (Dm)Great.

Drum solo, keep on (Dm)

(Dm)The day has come for all us sinners,
if your not a servant you'll be struck to the ground.
Flee the burning, greedy city looking back
on her to see there's nothin' around.
I don't believe in fairytales and no one wants to go to Hell,
but we made the wrong decision
And it's easy to see.
Now if you wanna serve above or be a king below with us your
Welcome to the city where your future is set forever.

(F) She's a (C) dwelling place for (Bb) demons,
she's a (F) cage for every (C) unclean spirit (Bb) every filthy bird
And makes us (Gm) drink the poisoned (F) wine to forni(C)cating with our (Bb)kings.
Fallen now is (A)Babylon the Great.

(A) She's a (E) dwelling place for (D) demons,
she's a (A) cage for every (E) unclean spirit (D) every filthy bird
And makes us (Bm) drink the poisoned (A) wine to forni(E)cating with our (D)kings.
Fallen now is (C#)Babylon the (Fm#)Great.
