Lyrics

(CN.C.)Ris ing a bove

ten sion be low;

learn from the in be tween.

(Bb)Blind ed by trust,

a sleep to the truth;

a (Gm7)wak ened by dis be

lief.

(CN.C.)Some where I’ve found

strength in my soul;

still you re fuse to see.

Are you (Bbmaj7)sure

I’m (Csus)not

all (Dm)right?

’Cause late ly, (Bbmaj7)I’ve

been (C)feel

ing (CN.C.)fine.

Ev ’ry (Bb)life line leads its (Bb)own way to the heav ens;

but I have (Bb)seen you run in (Bb)cir cles, un for giv en.

Is there (A)an y thing in this world that can make you stop?

Oh, you’re a ma chine.

A world of your own,

hol low in side;

care ful when worlds col lide.

I’m (Bb)fill ing my life

with all it can hold,

(Gm7)car ry it on with

pride.

Are you

The (F)sun’s

still a bove

all the (Dm7)rain that’s com ing (Bbmaj7)down;

and (F)I can feel the (C)clouds drift ing a (Bb)way.

And now the sky is o pen (Csus)wide.

Turn the (Bb)light (F)on, and you will (Bb)see (F)things so much clear er.

Whoa.

But there’s no (Bb)heart, (F)oh, there’s no

(F)heart, and I’ve (C)spent all this time feel ing some thing (A)you can’t feel at all.

You’re a ma (CN.C.)chine.

Oh, you’re a ma chine.
