[Gm][Ab]

Standing [Gm]right outside the echo
When we were still just cutting teeth
Turning madness into waveforms
Searching cords for what's beneath
All these [Cm7]existential [Cm6]freshmen
[Eb] Trying to [Ab]keep our noses [Gm]clean
[BbM7]Scared to show our [EbM7]faith in
[Dm7] The [AbM7]ghost in the machine[Gm]

[Gm][Ab]
[Gm][Ab]

Standing [Gm]right outside the echo
We were working for the door
Assuming our dreams were brighter
Than the bands that played before
But you can [Cm7]see it in their [Cm6]hunger
[EbM7] You can [AbM7]hear it in their [Gm]screams
Back to [BbM7]just trying to make [EbM7]contacts
[Dm7] With the [AbM7]ghost in the machine[Gm]

[Gm][Ab]
[Gm][Ab]

To the [Gm]build ups and the breakdowns
To the boom and to the crash
To the stockpiles of excuses
Or how to trade it in for cash
All the [Cm7]boys in these motel [Cm6]rooms
[EbM7]The lobby [AbM7]call at six fif[Gm]teen
One million [BbM7]miles upon a [EbM7]highway
[Dm7]..For a [AbM7]ghost in the ma[Gm]chine

All the thousand hesitations
L built up in my early years
On the reconsiderations
Though the music of the spheres
Which I can[Cm7]not deny any [Cm6]longer
[EbM7] When every [AbM7]night I recon[Gm]vene
With these [BbM7]vibrations giving [EbM7]proof of
[Dm7] The [AbM7]ghost in the ma[Gm]chine
The [AbM7]ghost in the ma[Gm]chine
The [AbM7]ghost in the ma[Gm]chine
The [AbM7]ghost in the ma[Gm]chine[Ab]
