Verse
A
The mechanical wonder is
E
Is just a noise in my room
D
And I'm chasing the wonder and
E
its just a hole in my tune (SECOND GUITAR PLAYS RIFF 2 HERE)
A
And the radio plays but it
E
But it don't sing a song
D
The mechanical thunder is
E
What is all going on (AND HERE)
A
And I walk down the road
E
And I awake in a tune
D
And the mechanical thunder is
E
Just a noise in my room
(INTRO RIFF REPEATED)
Chorus
A
And we rode it once
E
On a thundering night
D
So I'll walk with you
E
Where the locks take flight
(second riff again after chorus)
A
All machines make our lives today
E
And I like them the best
D
But the mechanical thunder is
E
It's just a noise in my head
A
And the radio plays at me
E
But it don't sing a song
D
But the mechanical wonder is
E
Ah, it's all going wrong
A
And they rode it once
E
On a thundering night
D
So I walk with you
E
Where the locks take flight
A
And we keep on through
E
It's where the road don't roar
D
Where the farm once stood
E
Where the union crawls, big time
(INTRO RIFF REPEATED)
A
The machines that I'm walking from
E
Though they play in the songs
D
And the dreams that your holding on
E
Don't run for so long
A
So I'm hiding machines away
E
But I keep them for you
D
But the things that you want to say
E
It's just a noise in my room
A
And I look at the picture now
E
And there's a weight on us all
D
But the mechanical wonder is
E
It's a cure one and all
A
And we rode it once
E
On a thundering night
D
So I walk with you
E
Where the locks take flight
A
And we keep on through
E
It's where the road don't roar
D
Where the farm once stood
E
Where the union crawls, big time
(INTRO RIFF REPEATED)
