Intro: 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 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 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 roomA 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 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 timeA And we rode it once E On a thundering night D So I'll walk with you E Where the locks take flight
