So, this is just my acoustic rendition of the song. It's probably not 100%
accurate, but it's a start.
I prefer to switch between full bar chords and basic chords throughout the
song,
but feel free to use whichever variations of the chords you want.
"~" Means to let chord ring.
Intro:
G G Em C
Verse 1 & 2:
G
machinery mill us forever will rule us
Em C
until we find out how you're wired
G
god's no longer read through the hands of the dead,
Em C
its safe now to question the friar
G D C~
if we stopped at wheel we'd never have swung in this tire
Little transition to second verse:
e |-------------------|
b |-------------------|
g |-------------------|
d |-------------------|
a |---3-3-3-2-2-2-0---|
E |-------------------|
G
beyond middle ages left village for nations
Em C
this masterpiece our fathers penned
G
to dark to see the old time tyranny
Em C
may the bulb never burn out again
G D C
now that we know now everything that we didn't know then
Chorus:
G D C G
the book was the lash and the word was the law
G D C G
but the tyranny ended with ink on a block
G D Em C
but don't put it in park with miles to go
G C D G
need a match never more shall we read in the dark
Interlude that I haven't quite worked out yet:
I usually play G G Em C twice and let C ring on the second time.
