Tom: Am
E A
So this is the machine age!
E A
It's just a disgrace
E A
This is no way to be saved
E A
Start again from the first page
C
Give me insect eyes
D
Insect brain
G
Give me insect sex
Em
I'll be happy again
C
I looked at the sun
D G
I had to have something
[Chorus]
E A
Suppress all personal reference
E A
Forget the people and the place they went
E A
Ignore the logical sequence
E A
Welcome to the land of sense
C
Like the cloth from a table
D
The world pulled away
G Em
Can't see in front of my own face
C
I looked at the sun
D G
I had to have something
[Verse 2]
E A
So this is the machine age!
E A
It's just a bloody waste
E A
see you on the front page
E A
See you in outer space
C
You have to climb
D
But you don't have to win
G
If you have to have something
Em
It shows you don't need a thing
C
I looked at the sun
D G F E
I walked away blinded
C
But I had to have something
D G
More than nothing at all
[Chorus]
C D
On my bed of nails I rest the night
G Em
Can't make a sound to let you know I'm alright
C D
If there's life on earth and it still thinks
G Em
Better head for the hills and wait for daylight
C
I looked at the sun
D G
I had to have something
