CG5 feat DAGames - Children Of The Machine

[First Verse]
G Em
I’ll show you the truth, I’ll show you your purpose
C D G
Just a pencil and a dream, created for entertainment

[Pre Chorus]
G Em
He lives on through us
C
Born from darkness, born from lust

‘Cause when we reach the end
Em D
We do it all over again

[Chorus]
G D
Follow me, we are children of the machine
Em C G
Barely human in a city built on broken dreams
G D
Follow me, we are children of the machine
Em C
Barely human in a city built on broken dreams

[Second Verse]

Am Em
It’s a joyless job
C G
When your heart’s running empty at the seams (the seams)
D Em
But after eons filling up the bottle
C D
Singing on a desperate pencil and a dream
G
Well, the void was filled when you lived
Em
To the empty ink, then we would sink
A
To the beat of a cog wheel turning
C
Love was the fuel that kept me from burning
G
To create this finest design
D
You need a magic darker than mine
Em
And a kiss from the angels
C
Casting demons down the bottom line
G D Em C
So wonderful how deep the love can flow
Em
‘Cause when you came into my life
D Am
I couldn’t bear to let go
C E
But the curtain came to a close

[Pre Chorus]

G Em
He lives on through us
C
Born from darkness, born from lust

‘Cause when we reach the end
Em D
We do it all over again

[Chorus 2]

G D
Follow me, we are children of the machine
N.C
(We built this machine!)
Em C
Barely human in a city built on broken dreams
G D
Follow me, we are children of the machine
N.C
(You came to life!)
Em C
Barely human in a city built on broken dreams

[Bridge]

Am Em
In this dark nightmare, see the spotlight glare
C A7
And accept your fate in time (in time)
Am Em
In this dark nightmare, see the spotlight glare
C D
And accept your fate in time

[Outro]

G D
Follow me, we are children of the machine
Em C G
Barely human in a city built on broken dreams
