INTRO: [Am] [Bb] [Am] [G] ...repeat for fade in
[Am]President Joe once had a [F]dream
The world held his [E]hand gave their pledge
So he told them his [Am]scheme for a Saviour Ma[Em]chine
[Am]They called it The Prayer, its answer was [F]law
Its logic stopped [E]war, gave them food
How they a[Am]dored till it cried in its [E]boredom
[G]Please don't be[F#m]lieve in me [Am]please disa[Bb]gree with me
[G]Life is too [F#m]easy, a [Am]plague seems quite [Bb]feasible [C]now
[Bb]Or maybe a [C]war[Bb] I may kill you [Am7]all [D] [Am7] [D] [Am7] [D]
1st SOLO: [Am7] [F] [Ab] [Bb]
[Am] [F] [Am] [F] [Ab] [Bb]
[Am]Don't let me [G]stay, don't let me [F]stay
My logic says [G]burn so send me a[Am]way
Your minds are too [Bb]green, I despise all I've [F]seen
You can't stake your [G]lives on a Saviour Ma[Am7]chine[D]
2nd SOLO: Am7 D...(11 times)
[G]I need you [F#m]flying and [Am]I'll show that [Bb]dying
Is [G]living be[F#m]yond reason [Am]sacred di[Bb]mension of [C]time
[Bb]I perceive every [C]sign[Bb] I can steal every [Am7]mind [D] [Am7] [D] [Am7] [D]
