	  		 Intro    Am  G  Am  C  G  Em  Am(8th fret)  
 
              Am          G              D      Am  
     Verse 1  Everybody's jumping on the circus train  
                   G         D             G         D     Dm  
              Well some jump high and some jump off again  
              Dm                      C             Am     G  
              And the razz-ma-tazz is rolling women folk unveiled  
                            Am        F         G  
              All truths to light all cross his name  
                   Em  
              Even high where the eagle circles  
                           D                   C  
              Well you can taste tail feathers team  
                  Am                    D  
              But wonders, am I still a free bird  
                        G           Am  
              Or just a part of the machine  
 
              Am                   G               D        Am  
     Verse 2  We hitched the cover wagons from the rule out west  
                      G            D                G      D     Dm  
              All the picks in the pockets of their sunday best  
              Dm                     C          Am           G  
              Shaking hands, kissing babies for all of their worth  
                                      Am            F           G  
              Oh, they'll promise you gold, Promise everyone an earth  
                         Em  
              Still that old bald eagle circles  
                           D                   C  
              It's not the first and that he's seen  
                   Am                       D  
              His reflection in the eyes of innocence  
                                        G           Am  
              His becoming just another part of the machine  
              D           Am  
              Part of the machine  
 
                F             C          G  
     Chorus   I wish I had an eagle like you  
                 F       G  
              To look up too  
                             C        D        G   D    G  
              He could be my wings to fly in a big bird sky  
                           C     Em  
              Up Above the whole machine

     Verse 3  Smart guys out running the whole man tribe  
              G         D                   G      D      Dm  
              Up in the mountains where the eagle  flies  
              Dm                 C         Am   G  
              Wouldn't take that job offer on a plate  
                                      Am        F        G  
              You got to fly with the eagle and he won't wait  
                      Em  
              Looking Down on the smoke on the factories  
                        D               C  
              Until the truth creeps up unseamed  
                       Am                               D  
              They see themselves in the faces of their children  
                                                   Am  
              And realize they too are part of the machine  
              G           Am  
              Part of the machine  
 
                F             C          G  
     Chorus   I wish I had an eagle like you  
                 F       G  
              To wake up too  
                             C        D        G   D    G  
              He could be my wings to fly in a big bird sky  
                              C            Em  
              He'll let me be part of the  machine  
              G           Am       G           Am       G           Am  
              Part of the machine, part of the machine, part of the machine  
              G            Am       G            Am  
              Part of your machine, part of your machine
