Imaginal Cells chords and lyrics - MACHINE HEAD

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]We're in a critical phase
of human civilization
That our survival is really in question
There is gener[D]ally a feeling
That there's something happening
People have been ex[G]posed of course
to the whole concept of peak oil
To climate [D]change, to population explosion
The doomsday clock
keeps mov[Bb]ing closer
[C]Re ligious people [Bb]are talking
[G]about the end times
Present state of disorganization
What seems [C]to be happening is that people
are beginning to realize
How many of these are real crises
Or how many of these [D]are crises as a [G]result
of limitation[Bb]s of our be[B]lief system?
While our [G]civilization's
structures become so rigid
And it can no longer [D]adapt
to the changing situations
There's a great increase
in mental illness
There are [G]signs of when these civilizations
come to an end
[D]There's a sense of alienation
within the population
A very large increase in vi[Bb]olent crime,
[Eb]social disruption
[Bb]Some of the [G]beliefs that we have bought
into affect the entire population [C]so
An[G]d sur[C]prisingly an interest
in religious cultism
[D]As societies start to [G]begin
to dis[Bb]integ[B]rate[Bb]
[C]These weapons [G]of mass distraction
Which are now [D]falling apart
as we're seeing
Life being exposed time and time again,
every day, [G]every week
What they've been distracting us from
Is our true [D]power,
the true nature of human nature
Our power to evolve
Our [Bb]power to become cells in the
organism called humanity
An[G]d there's the exciting story
of our own power to [C]evolve
Our own true nature and our own
evolutionary des[D]tiny
Medicine started out as
a healing art to help [G]others
But over time and [D]in our
materialistic world
And a world [C]based on [D]corporations
[B]Industries [G]that thrive by making
money [D]out of sick people
But the environment's changing
We are at this very moment
[Bb]In a stage where corporations
are teeter- tottering
Because they can't maintain
themselves [G]anymore
They've grown too big and they
[D]have too little [G]awareness
To [C]maintain this world
And while they are doing their
destruction of the planet
[D]A new series of [Bb]peop[D]le
are [G]coming out of the old
Just like we talked about
[D]the imaginal cells
But imaginal cells have a
different vision of the world
And why [G]this is important for us
Is because it is a [D]world of relationship
[C]Nobody [D]can get off the bus,
we're all in this [Bb]together
We see that we are indeed really
approaching [G]a change of civilization
It really is a [C]lesson for us
We're in the throes of a new evolution
A new [D]civilization is manifesting,
a greater [C]civiliza[Bb]tion is manifest[D]ing
[Bb]Creative [G]minorities arise
The imaginal cells are people
that are saying
[D]"There's another way to do this
There's a better,
brighter image that's much more successful
[G]Than the one we're doing"
The precursors of the next
level [D]of our evolution
The fractal image will repeat itself
It's not a coincidence
We know [C]where we've [Bb]been,
we know [C]where we're [G]going
And all I have to say is
Just stay out of way of
the dinosaurs as [C]they crash
And allow us to take over this planet
[D]And bring in the new ide[D]as that the
imaginal cells will offer
To support and encourage our
survival as a civilization on this planet
