Verse 1
(F minor) (Csus4) (B major) When (E major) I was young,
a song was sung
Of a land that was milk
and honey
Where people (C major) were rolling in (E major) money
Far (B major) over the (E major) billowy (C major) sea
And (F minor) so one day I sailed away
(E major) with a heart (C major) that was light and (E major) sunny.
I came (G major) to the (C major) land of the free.
I asked you, is this liberty?
(B major) If there (D major) is (B major) no (Ddim) sun, there is (D major) no moon, (Ddim) there is no May,
there is (B major) no June, if (C major) you listen to the (D major) song of the sewing machine,
(G major) (A minor) (D major) The (G major) babbling brook,
(Ddim) the summer time,
(G major) is just a lazy (B major) po et's rhyme,
if you listen (A minor) to the
(C major) Song of the (D major) snowy march (G major) ing
All through (B major) the day
A drizzling rain is flaying
Upon (E major) my (B major) window pan (E major) e
And (A major) every drop (E major) is saying
(A major) There (D major) is no lover's lane
There (G major) is no (D major) song, there is no bird,
and (G major) God is (D major) just (G major) an other (B major) word.
If (C major) you listen to the (A major) song
of (D major) the flowing machine.
(G major) (F sharpdim) (B major) Linen, (E major) piles of linen
Stitchin', stitchin', cuttin', pinnin'
(A minor) With no end and no beginning
(E major) That's the song of
the sewing machine
Sewin', sewin', ever sewing
Going nowhere, always going
Growing (A minor) older, without growing
That's (E major) the song of the sewing machine
Tears, tears,
and yet more tears.
Nights that last a thousand years.
(C major) Courage for my souvenirs.
(B major) What am I doing,
and (A minor) what does it mean?
(D major) There (G major) is no song, (D major) there is (Ddim) no bird,
(G major) and God is just a number (B major) one.
If (C major) you listen to the (D major) song
of (D major) the sew (C major) ing (D major) machine.
(G major)
