AmGFE
Come with me I'll Show you how to be a metal man,
AmGFE
When the gears are turning and the fires burnin'
AmGFE
When the world tick around you, voices tocking all the time
AmGFE
When you live for sleep and you've never slept, because you cannot sleep
AmGFE
Colonel Walter was shocked when he heard from the Nile
AmGFE
Copper African Elephants turning hostile
AmGFE
So he built these wonderful automaton blokes
AmGFE
And a very big steam powered giraffe what smokes
[pré-refrão]
DmC
Now the war is past and over, we're left to sit and wonder
DmDmDm
What is life? and what is real? and why do living things need feel-
EEE
Ing, ings, INGS! (here we gooo! ah 1,2,3)
[refrão]
AmGFE
La da da da da, La da da da da
DmCFE
La da da da da, La da da da da da
AmGFE
La da da da da, La da da da da
DmCFE
La da da da da, La da da da da da

AmGFE
How'd you like to try pumping lead through your veins
AmGFE
Or have a heart so wet and cold it starts rusting
AmGFE
When the world tick around you, voices tocking all the time
AmGFE
You live for feelings you've never felt because you cannot feel
[ponte]
AmGCE
And what is this leaking affecting my eye?
AmGCE
Does the oil that is dripping mean this is a cry?
AmGDmE
Will I ever be something with feelings to hide?
AmGCE
Or am I just a boiler with nothing inside?
[pré-refrão 2]
DmC
I want all today, don't want to hear you say
DmDmDm
You can't do this, you can't do that, you're not a living thing with feel-
EEE
Ing, ings, INGS! (ah 1,2,3)
EAmGE
Wind me up, turn the gears (Brass goggles!)
EAmGE
Wind me up, turn the gears (Brass goggles!)
EDmGE
Wind me up, turn the gears (Brass goggles, goggles, goggles!)
EAmGE
Wind me up, turn the gears (Brass goggles!)
DmC
I want all today, don't want to hear you say
DmDmE
I love you, I love you, I love-love-love you
AmGFE
