Am                                    C  Csus4  C  Dm  F-5  Em
    I hear the roar of a big machine

Am                             C  Csus4  C  Dm  F-5  Em
    Two worlds and in between

Am                            C  Csus4  C
    Hot metal and methedrine

Dm  F-5  Em
    I hear empire--

Am    C  Csus4  C  Dm  F-5  Em
Down                   I hear empire--

I hear the roar of a big machine

Am                             C  Csus4  C  Dm  F-5  Em
    Two worlds and in between

Am
    Love lost, fire at will

C  Csus4          C  Dm  F-5  Em
Dum-dum bullets and shoot to kill  I hear--

Am                      C  Csus4  C  Dm  F-5  Em
Dive bombers and empire down--               empire--

Down
[Verse B]
Am
I hear the sons of the city and dispossessed

C         Dm
Get down, get undressed

Am
Get pretty, but you and me

C                   Dm
We got the kingdom, we got the key

           Am
We got the empire, now as then

C                        Dm
We don't doubt, we don't take direction

Am                       C  Csus4  C  Dm  F-5  Em
Lucretia, my reflection, dance the ghost with me
[Instrumental] | Am | Am | C | Dm | x2 [Verse B]
        Am
We look hard, we look--

C    Dm
Through

        Am              C     Dm
We look hard to see for real

     Am
Such things I hear they don't make sense

C                Dm
I don't see much evidence

        Am            C     Dm
I don't feel, I don't feel,     I don't--

Am
Feel
[Instrumental] | Am | Am | C | Dm | x4 [Verse B]
Am
A long train held up by page on page

C                 Dm
A hard reign held up by rage

Am
    Once a railroad

C        Dm
Now it's done

Lucretia, my direction, dance the ghost with me
