E A
I think you're cute my name is Ashley
E E
And I work at the computer store
E A
That's what I never say to Kyle
F#m B7
The barista at the coffee shop next door
E A
I watch him sadly from the counter
E E
Where I always pick the wobbly stool
A
He hands me
N.C
My latte
F#m
And smirks in
N.C
This hot way
F#m
But I just
B7
Cannot play cool

[Verse 1]
E A
The clear and logical solution
E
Is to send a robot in my place
A
A robot modeled after me except that
F#m B7
She can deal with Kyle face to face
E A
Been working on her 40 weeks or so
E
With barely time to sleep or eat
A
Her parts are
A
Built custom
F#m
All that's left
F#m
Are just some
F#m
Last circuits
B7
I must complete [silenced]
[Chorus]
E
Android Ashley
E
I wish I were you
A
Instructions tell you what to do
E B7
And if you fail you can't feel blue
E
Android Ashley
E
When you're good to go
A F#m
Maybe then at last I'll know
A B7
How to fix the bugs in Ashley 1.0

[Verse 2]
E A
The final chip arrived today so
E
I install it in the vacant port
A
I solder in the last connections
Hit the power switch
B7
And pray there's not a short
E
She whirs to life
A
Her optic sensors turn my way
E*
I wonder what they see
A*
She holds out
Her hand to
F#m*
Accept my command
F#m(back to pattern)
Ooh, I have made
B7 (silenced)
A brand new me
[Chorus]
E
Android Ashley
E
I wish I were you
A
Instructions tell you what to do
E B7
And if you fail you can't feel blue
E
Android Ashley
E
Now you're good to go
A F#m
Maybe then at last I'll know
A B7
How to fix the bugs in Ashley 1.0
[Bridge pattern 1]
(strum B7 once)
A F#m A F#m B7
A
She walks up to the counter
F#m
Run program talk to Kyle
A
Sub-routine order latte
F#m
Call function wave and smile
A
Parse input 'Hey, how are you?'
F#m
Play text to voice 'I'm fine'
A
Parse input 'You seem different'
F#m A B7 A
And suddenly I see the flaw in my design
[Bridge pattern 2]
(number = finger/play with respective chord)
A|--4--------4--------4-------|
E|-----3--------3--------3----|
C|--------2--------2----------|
G|--1--------1--------1-------|
F#m
If I wrote this program perfectly
E
I won't need to make corrections
F#m
But if Kyle falls for Robot me
B7 A
He'll never love my imperfections
A
So I abort the program
B7
And quickly call her back
F#m
I start the shutdown process
A
But then she turns to me
F#m B7
Before the screen goes black
[Chorus]
E
Human Ashley
E
I wish I were you
A
No one can tell you what to do
E A B7
The things you feel are real and true
E
Human Ashley
E
Do not envy me
A F#m
You know all that life can be
A B7
I wish I knew how it feels to be so free

[Outro]
E A
So I see Kyle the barista
E E
At the coffee shop he looks my way
E
I think you're cute
A
My name is Ashley
B7
And I work at the computer store
B7
I say
E
(strum once)
