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

And we [A]rode it once
On a [E]thundering night
So I'll [D]walk with you
Where the [E]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

And the[A]y rode it once
On a [E]thundering night
So I wal[D]k with you
Where the [E]locks take flight
And we [A]keep on through
It's [E]where the road don't roar
Where th[D]e farm once stood
Where the [E]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

And we r[A]ode it once
On a [E]thundering night
So I wal[D]k with you
Where the [E]locks take flight
And we [A]keep on through
It's [E]where the road don't roar
Where th[D]e farm once stood
Where the [E]union crawls, big time
