[VERSE 1]
Am           G                    F           E7
Come with me I'll Show you how to be a metal man,
          Am                G             F    E7
When the gears are turning and The fires Burn-in 
           Am           G                 F             E7
When the world tick around you, voices talking all the time
           Am                G                    F                 E7
When you live for sleep and you've never slept, because you cannot sleep
 
           Am         G              F             E7
Colonel Walter was shocked when he heard from the Nile
           Am     G         F       E7
Copper African Elephants turning hostile 
        Am          G           F       E7
So he built these wonderful automaton blokes 
        Am       G             F             E7
and a very big steam powered giraffe what smokes 
 
[PRECHOURUS 1]
Dm                                   C
Now the war is past and over, we're left to sit and wonder 
Dm                 Dm                 Dm
what is life? and what is real? and why do living things need feel-
E7   E7    E7
ing, ings, INGS! (1,2, 3)
 
[CHORUS]
         Am  G            F    E7
La da da da da, La da da da da
         Dm  C            F    G
La da da da da, La da da da da da
         Am  G           F     E7
La da da da da, La da da da da
          Dm      C     F       E7
La da da, da da, da da, da da daaa
 
[VERSE 2]
Am                 G                   F          E7
How'd you like to try pumping lead through your veins
          Am                G             F    E7
Or have a heart so wet and cold it start rust-ing 
           Am           G                 F             E7
When the world tick around you, voices talking all the time
           Am                G                    F                E7
When you live for feelings you've never felt, because you cannot feel
 
    Am            G         F          E7
And what is this leaking affecting my eyes?
         Am              G         F          E7
Does the oil that is dripping mean this is a cry?
        Am          G           F          E7
Will I ever be something with feelings to hide? 
        Am       G           F        E7
Or am I just a boiler with nothing inside?
 
[PRECHOURUS 2]
Dm                          C
I want it all today, Don't want to hear you say 
    Dm                 Dm                    Dm
you can't do this, you can't do that, you're not a living thing with feel-
E7    E7    E7
ing, ings, INGS! (1,2, 3)
 
[CHOURUS]
         Am  G            F    E7
La da da da da, La da da da da
         Dm  C            F    G
La da da da da, La da da da da da
         Am  G           F     E7
La da da da da, La da da da da
          Dm      C     F       E7
La da da, da da, da da, da da daaa

** Originally meant to be the two vocal parts together a capella. But I find the chords and part one go
           quite nicely together if you strum once, but all in all, it's improv.
