[Verse]
       A               F#m        E              B
To the halls of Latham House, the king he did proclaim
                         F#m          B               G#
That the seventh Earl of Derby, James Stanley was his name
         A                 F#m          E               B
Should resist the Scottish force, bound for the Isle of Man
                      F#m           B                   G#
So he gathered up his fighters and obeyed the king's command

[Verse]
          A               F#m                 E           B
Well, the Countess was of noble blood, though not of royalty
                   F#m       B           G#
Yet brave and as intrepid as any man was she
       A              F#m            E                 B
So the house became a fortress, with her good Lord now gone
                  F#m                 B              G#     A
Her name was Lady Charlotte, but they called her Babylon

[Chorus]
   E                 B            F#m7
So put yourselves in line against Babylon
    A                E               G#
All ye that bend the bow against the crown
E                  B              F#m7
Train the gunner's sights against Babylon
                            A                                  C#m      F#m
Till the Eagle's Tower does fall and the walls they are thrown down...

[Verse]
         A            F#m        E               B
Both the puritans and Fairfax, together they did call
                        F#m           B             G#
For this one last royal stronghold in Lancashire to fall
       A            F#m                  E               B
So the garrison she strengthened and the Eagle Tower was manned
                    F#m             B                G#     A
And refusing all conditions, it was then the siege began

[Chorus]
   E                 B            F#m7
So put yourselves in line against Babylon
    A                E               G#
All ye that bend the bow against the crown
E                  B              F#m7
Train the gunner's sights against Babylon
                            A                                  C#m      F#m
Till the Eagle's Tower does fall and the walls they are thrown down...

[Verse]
      A                  F#m        E            B
'Twas in two good months when those rebels did retreat
                            F#m            B           G#
They were cast out from the earthworks and driven to defeat
        A             F#m          E                B
With dishonour and in shame, their siege came to an end
                      F#m          B             G#      A
They were routed by a lady and two hundred loyal men

[Chorus]
   E                 B            F#m7
So put yourselves in line against Babylon
    A                E               G#
All ye that bend the bow against the crown
    E                  B              F#m7
And train the gunner's sights against Babylon
                            A                                  E
Till the Eagle's Tower does fall and the walls they are thrown down...

[Chorus]
                     B            F#m7
So put yourselves in line against Babylon
    A                E               G#
All ye that bend the bow against the crown
E                  B              F#m7
Train the gunner's sights against Babylon
                            A                                  C#m
Till the Eagle's Tower does fall and the walls they are thrown down...
