  DSomeone’s Bmmessing Bm/Awith the maDchines
They’ve been Bmleft out Bm/Ain the Drain
Well it’s Bmstrange to come Bm/Aback Gfree of any Emrust
  CDares you to exDplain
Could you Emspeak a little more   Cclearly on the Dline
[Verse]
Cold wind Bmkeeps Bm/Ablowing from the Deast

Well the Bmchaos grows Astronger on the Gsuperstition Dflyway
EmLooks like we’re   Cspinning up toDnight
Could you Emstep a little Ccloser to the Dline
[Verse]
Splitting Gheart and Dmind, broken Gcircuit by deDsign
Well the deGmand for arms    Dis goin’ through the Groof
The Emscientists are forced to work in the Dmaze
While they Emtap tap tap tap    Gtapping on the Dline
Could you Emspeak a little Gclearly one more Dtime
While you Emtap tap tap tap   Gtapping on the Dline
