Start Jamming...
[B]
Take a [Ebm] little walk to the edge of [Bm] town, and go across the [B] trough
Where the viaduct looms like a building of doom, as it should
Where [Em]
secrets lie in the board of fires, in the [A] homing wires
A busy man you know you're [G] never [B] coming back
Across the square, across the bridge, across the mills, across the stacks
On [N] a gathering storm comes a tall [B] handsome man
[E] In a dusty black coat with a red right [G]
[B] hand
He'll wrap you in his arms, tell you that you've been a good [Bm] boy
[Abm]
He'll rekindle all the dreams that took you a lifetime to [B] destroy
[E] He'll reach deep into the hole, heal your shrinking soul
But there won't be a single thing [G] that [B] you can do
He's a god, he's a man, he's a ghost, he's a demon
They're [Gb] whispering his name through this disappearing [B]
[Gbm] land
[E] But hidden in his coat is a red right [G]
[B] hand
You don't have no money, get you some
You don't have no car, get you one
You [Dbm] don't have no self respect, you feel like an insect
Well don't you worry buddy, [G] cause here he comes
Through the ghettos and the burials and the burials and the [Bm] slums
[Abm]
[B] His shadow is cast wherever he [Abm] stands
That's a green paper in his red [E] right hand
[B]
[Eb] [D] [Gbm] [B]
[E] [B] [Ab]
[E] [B] [E]
He's a god, he's a man, he's a ghost, he's a demon
He's [Bm] a god, [Db] [Bm] he's a man, he's a ghost, he's a demon

[Bm] So
You'll see him in your nightmares, [Abm]
[Gbm] you'll see him [Bb] in your [B] dreams
But he ain't what he [E] seems
You'll see him in your head on a tv screen hey buddy i'm wanting you [G] to turn it up
[B] He's a god he's a man he's a
[G] You're one [N] microscopic cog in his catastrophic plan designed and directed [B] by his red right hand
[C] [Gm]
[Ab] You
