Dm Am   Dm G   x 2

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.

Dm Am    Dm G     x 2

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

Dm  no chords    Dm  Am G    x 4

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

Dm  no chords   Dm  Am G   x 2
Dm Am       Dm  G    repeat and fade
