E5 D5
I stay in my room,
G5 A5
All alone in the gloom,
E5 D5
What need I of light?
G5 A5
Machines they can see in the night,
E5 D5
And I feel no pain
G5 A5
Metal heart and a metal brain,
E5 D5
But something is wrong
G5 A5
'cause I still feel that signal coming in so
G A / D E / G A / D E
E5 D5
I stand at your door,
G5 A5
I guess I'll wait a moment more
E5 D5
Your hall light comes on
G5 A5
And now my turn to fire upon
E5 D5
But I wheel away
G5 A5
Defer my plight, for another day
E5 D5
To dream of your face
G5 A5
But a video screen takes its place
Em7 G
Hey, oh it's true
D B Em7
I'm a helpless automaton, Make an ultimatum to you
G
Hey, it's true
D B F#m
Machin'ry in my pocket, I've even got a docket from you
E / Em7 / D / F#m / E / Em7 / D /
G A / D E / G A / D E /
E5 D5
I went to the man,
G5 A5
I told him a robot is what I am,
E5 D5
But he just smiled,
G5 A5
said I was a fractious child
E5 D5
"Distrusted not Rusted"
G5 A5
That's why I feel so disgusted
E5 D5
But I know he's wrong, 'cause
G5 A5
I haven't felt this way for very long
Em7 G
Hey, oh it's true
D B Em7
I'm a helpless automaton, Make an ultimatum to you
G
Hey, it's true
D B F#m
Machin'ry in my pocket, I've even got a docket from you
