A Machine Spiritual (in The People's Key)

 
               
    C 
The people's key 
Ringing through arena seats 
    Am 
The black machine 
Played it all from memory 
  F 
A fever dream 
Well, I'll come back eventually 
   Fm 
To wade into the water 
Another and another 
 
We go 
Am              G 
    Form some kind of code 
       Am 
The bodies float 
              G 
And form some kind of code 
       Am 
The bodies float 
         G 
Someone's out to know 
 
F 
Papa hobo 
     G 
Don't hide your eyes 
F 
Mother mountain 
      G               Am 
Don't kill your unborn child 
F       C 
  His day is coming 
F        
  His day is coming 
 
 
  C 
A question burns 
Beneath the centuries of dirt 
     Am 
That voice you've heard 
Well, every head's a different world 
      F 
Well, mine's concerned  
I boarded up the windows 
    Fm 
A catatonic plateau 
A backwards black-faced minstrel show 
 
 
 
Am               G 
    So just let me go 
         Am 
The prisoner moans 
        G 
Oh, just let me go 
         Am 
The prisoner moans 
          G 
No one has to know 
 
 
F            G 
  Eva Braun went to dye her hair 
F              G             Am 
  Little Hitler sighs in his giant's chair 
F         C 
  And dreamed of nowhere 
F         C 
  And dreamed of nowhere 
F    C 
  And dreamed 
 
 
    C  
The people's key 
Ringing filling everything 
    Am 
The theme repeats 
Thinner than the galaxy 
   F  
Impart to me 
Your wisdom and eventually 
     Fm  
I'll float into the ether 
Another from another 
 
 
We grow 
Am            G 
  Form some kind of code 
       Am 
A flesh at bone 
             G 
We form some kind of code 
           Am 
A flesh at bone 
        G 
No, you're not alone 
 
 
F             G 
  History bows and it steps aside 
F            G          Am 
  In the jungle there's columns of purple light 
F        C 
  We're starting over 
F        C 
  We're starting over 
F        C 
  We're starting  
F        C 
  We're starting
