E        D                A 
The most powerful song in America 
E          D              A 
It stopped ringing out today 
G                                 F#m 
I hear it somewhere, I don't know where, I don't know where 
         Bm                         E 
But it's covered by the sound of machines 


Verso 1:

E          D                 A 
The man in black approaches me 
E         D                A 
Holding a coffee cup that smells like gasoline 
G                           F#m 
He says he milked it from a chestnut tree 
Bm                      E 
Well, that explains the odor 

 
E        D                A 
The most powerful song in America 
E          D              A 
It stopped ringing out today 
G                                 F#m 
I hear it somewhere, I don't know where, I don't know where 
Bm                                  E 
But it's covered by the sound of machines 


Verso 2:

E            D              A 
'A newspaper article I read today said we are great 
E         D              A 
And then something about consequences' 
G                                               F#m 
He's got the smile of a dog and the eyes of a sheep 
           Bm                               E 
Keeps them both in a jar, but he won't show me 


E        D                A 
The most powerful song in America 
E            D                A 
Wouldn't you like to sing along 
G                                 F#m 
I hear it somewhere, it's over there, it's over there 
Bm                                  E 
Singing with the sweet sound of machines
