G Dm Am Take my advice Dm G Don't listen to me Dm Am It ain't paradise Dm G But it used to be Dm Am There was a time Dm G When the river was wide Dm Am And the water came running down Dm G To the rising tide G But the wooden ships G Were just a hippie dream G Just a hippie dream. Don't bat an eye Don't waste a word Don't mention nothin' That could go unheard 'Cause the tie-dye sails Are the screamin' sheets And the dusty trail Leads to blood in the streets And the wooden ships Are a hippie dream Capsized in excess If you know what I mean A Just because it's over for you G Don't mean it's over for me A It's a victory for the heart Every time the music starts G So please don't kill the machine G Don't kill the machine Bm Don't kill the machine don't kill the machine G Don't kill the machine don't kill the machine Bm Don't kill the machine don't kill the machine G Don't kill the machine A Another flower child goes to seed G In an ether-filled room of meat hooks Bm It's so ugly G So ugly You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  Am  Dm  G  Bm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
