Robots Can Fuck Your Shit Up

The Gay Blades


Tom: Am

         E
I'm rusted and
              Am
Just for the lark
           E
I would trade
                     Am
All of my moving parts
                 D
If you can move me
                    G
Like you say you can
                 G
Are you pretending
                      Am
You can love a tin can
       G          F#
Cold, tired and stale
Fm
Help me get away from here


[Chorus]
C
This is what I want for my life
G
But I'm not sure if I'm programmed right
D
Or if I'm under the gun
          F#
With some sick fascination to over indulge
          C
And it seems
                               G
Like these nuts and bolts and dreams
                          D
Always find some way to compete
                            F#     Fm
The latter never comes up clean, OH!


[Verse 2]
          E                 Am
Oh you say that you want me
                 E                 Am
Mirrors and flesh never meld that easy
                     D
And never can we kiss like
                      G
The scene in these shows
                     G
Never will lens grace
                Am
Our awkward pose
     G             F#
By igniting on embrace
   Fm
Irony is all I taste


[Chorus]
C                            G
This is what I want for my life
                                   D
But I'm not sure if I'm programmed right

Or if I'm under the gun
            F#
With some sick fascination to over indulge
         C
And it seems
                                 G
Like these nuts and bolts and dreams
                           D
Always find some way to compete
                                F#
And the latter never comes up clean



[CHORUS CONT'D]
          C
And I said
                             G
This is what I want for my life
                                    D
But I'm not sure if I'm programmed right

Or if I'm under the gun
            F#
With some sick fascination


[Outro]
  C            G
Oh my baby, drives me crazy
       D                         F#
Cause I'm your favorite wind-up toy
                            C
You're just too good to destroy
