Part Of The Machine
Jethro Tull
Intro (8th fret) Verse 1 Everybody’s jumping on the circus train Well some jump high and some jump off again And the razz-ma-tazz is rolling women folk unveiled All truths to light all cross his name Even high where the eagle circles Well you can taste tail feathers team But wonders am I still a free bird Or just a part of the machine Verse 2 We hitched the cover wagons from the rule out west All the picks in the pockets of their sunday best Shaking hands kissing babies for all of their worth Oh they’ll promise you gold Promise everyone an earth Still that old bald eagle circles It’s not the first and that he’s seen His reflection in the eyes of innocence His becoming just another part of the machine Part of the machine Chorus I wish I had an eagle like you To look up too He could be my wings to fly in a big bird sky Up Above the whole machine Bridge (8th fret) Solo Part of the machine Part of the machine Verse 3 Smart guys out running the whole man tribe Up in the mountains where the eagle flies Wouldn’t take that job offer on a plate You got to fly with the eagle and he won’t wait Looking Down on the smoke on the factories Until the truth creeps up unseamed They see themselves in the faces of their children And realize they too are part of the machine Part of the machine Chorus I wish I had an eagle like you To wake up too He could be my wings to fly in a big bird sky He’ll let me be part of the machine Part of the machine part of the machine part of the machine Part of your machine part of your machine
