Since I couldn't find any chords for Babel I decided to do them myself.
Here we go:
Am x 0 2 2 1 x
C x 3 2 0 1 x
F 1 3 3 2 1 x
G 3 2 0 0 0 x
Capo 2nd
Intro C
Am Am Am Am
Cos i know that time has numbered my days
Am Am F F C F C F C F C F
And I'll go along with everything you say
Am Am Am Am
But I'll ride home laughing Look at me now
Am Am
Through the walls of my town
F F C F C F C F C F
they come crumbling down
Am Am Am Am
And my ears hear the call of my unborn sons
Am Am F F C F C F C F C F
And I know that coices colour all I've done
Am Am Am Am
But I'll explain it all to the watchman's son

I just noticied myself a fault my friends.
In the second verse, on 'a year better spent in love'
It's two times F instead of an Am.
Sorry for my mistake.
If anyone knows how to edit theses tabs, in case of there's the possibility to edit, please let me know.
try this:
F F C F C F C G C
instead of this:
F F C F C F C F C F
maybe it's not exactly the way Marcus plays it, but i think it sounds more like the song when you only play guitar.
I don't have a capo but I find that hitting the transpose button three steps down (I tune to Eb) sounds really good as well (Am=F#m, F=D, C=A)
Either way... good tab for a good song.
