So, this is just my acoustic rendition of the song. It's probably not 100% accurate, but it's a start. I prefer to switch between full bar chords and basic chords throughout the song, but feel free to use whichever variations of the chords you want. "~" Means to let chord ring. Intro: G G Em C Verse 1 & 2: G machinery mill us forever will rule us Em C until we find out how you're wired G god's no longer read through the hands of the dead, Em C its safe now to question the friar G D C~ if we stopped at wheel we'd never have swung in this tire Little transition to second verse: e |-------------------| b |-------------------| g |-------------------| d |-------------------| a |---3-3-3-2-2-2-0---| E |-------------------| G beyond middle ages left village for nations Em C this masterpiece our fathers penned G to dark to see the old time tyranny Em C may the bulb never burn out again G D C now that we know now everything that we didn't know then Chorus: G D C G the book was the lash and the word was the law G D C G but the tyranny ended with ink on a block G D Em C but don't put it in park with miles to go G C D G need a match never more shall we read in the dark Interlude that I haven't quite worked out yet: I usually play G G Em C twice and let C ring on the second time. Verse 3: G gargantua's hungry, his fork and knife drumming Em C but what if we serve him no more? G if just for a day we took over this place Em C to find out where our harvest are stored G~ D~ C (Crescendo to Chorus) laugh like a king while you can till the bastions are stormed Chorus & Outro: G D C G the book was the lash and the word was the law G D C G but the tyranny ended with ink on a block G D Em C but don't put it in park with miles to go G C D G need a match never more shall we read in the dark G D C G the book was the lash and the word was the law G D C G but the tyranny ended with ink on a block G D Em C but don't put it in park with miles to go G C D G need a match never more shall we read in the dark G D Em C nevermore in the dark G C D nevermore in the dark G D Em C nevermore in the dark G D G nevermore in the dark
