On particle physics and the power of steam
   E riff 1                            E riff 2  Dsus2
It runs on diesel oil and Donnie Darko daydreams

I'll pack a pair of socks and a hunting rifle
  E riff 1
A change of underwear and some snacks and a trifle
E riff 1                                 E riff 2 Dsus2  F#5
Scared of going back you know how I'm forgetful

To go back and to see

I'll visit the Renaissance and the Romans, and the Victorians

Rock and roll and drive through in the 1950's

From the passenger window of a time machine

In truth the real reason that I built this here machine

Was just to travel back a couple of years
   E riff 1                                E riff 2  Dsus2
To when we first met before the fights and tears

Simple days and simple words like forever
