A Machine Spiritual (In the People's Key) Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]The people's key
Ringing through [Am]arena [C]seat[F] s
[Am]The black machine
Played it all from memory
[F]A fever dream
Well, I'll come back eventu[Dm]ally
To [Fm]wade into the water
Another and another

[Verse 2]
We [Am]go
Form some kind of [G]code
The bodies [Am]float
And form some kind [G]of code
The bodies [Am]float
Someone's out to [G]know

[Verse 3]
[F]Papa hobo
[Dm]Don'[G]t hide your eyes
[F]Mother mountain
Don't [G]kill your unborn [Am]child[Ddim]
His day is [C]coming[Ddim]
His day is [C]coming

[Verse 4]
[C]A question burns
Beneath the cen[Am]turies [F]of dirt
That [Am]voice you've heard
Well, every head's [Dm]a diffe[Am]rent world
Well, [F]mine's con[Fm]cerned
[G]I b[F]oarded up the windows
[Dm]A cata[Fm]tonic plateau
A backwards black-faced
minstrel minstrel [G]show[Am]
So just let me [G]go
The prisoner [Am]moans
Oh, just let me [G]go
The prisoner [Am]moans
No one has to [G]know

[Verse 5]
[F]Eva Braun went to dye[G] her hair
[F]Little Hitler sighs in [G]his
giant's [Am]chair[Dm]
[Ddim]And dreamed [Dm]of nowhere[C][Ddim]
And [C]dreamed [Ddim]of nowhere
And dreamed
[C][Ddim][C]

[Verse 6]
The people's key
[G]Ringing filling [F]everything[G]
[Dm]The them[Ddim]e repeats[Dm][Am]
Thin[E]ner than the [C]galaxy
Im[F]part to me
Your wis[C]dom and [Fm]eventually[F]
[Fm]I'll float into [Ddim]the ether
An[Fm]other [Ddim]from another
We [Db]grow[Fm]

[Verse 7]
[Am]
Form some kind of [G]code
Of flesh and [Am]bone
We form some kind of [G]code
Of flesh and [Am]bone
No, you're not alone
[G]

[Verse 8]
[F]History bows and it ste[G]ps aside
[F]In the[Dm] jungle there's col[G]umns of
purple [Am]light[Ddim]
We're starting [C]over[Ddim]
We're start[C]ing [Ddim]over
[C]We're start[Ddim]ing

[Outro 1]
We're [C]starting
[Dm][Ddim][C]
