Pressure Machine

[Intro] F#

[First Part]

F#                           B
Hope'll set your eyes agleam
     F#                       
Like four feet dangling in the 
        C#
stream
        F#                    
But the Kingdom of God, it's a 
                  B
pressure machine
F#                              C#
Every step, gotta keep it clean
  F#                           B
A mattress on a hardwood floor
F#                          C#
Who could ever ask for more?
F#                            B
I'll get up and cut the grass
      F#                        
Ain't nothing wrong with working 
    C#
class

[Chorus]

G#m   C#         F#           
    I    I don't remember the 
C#/F   D#m
last time
G#m     C#  F#        C#/F  B
    You     asked how I    was
G#m              C#         F#  
    Don't you feel the time 
     C#/F  D#m
slipping away?

         G#m          C#
It ain't funny at all
                      F#    C#/F  
It's gonna break your heart one 
  B
day

[Second Part]

F#                               B
Keep the debt cloud off the kids
F#                          C#
Only sunshine on their lids
F#                              B
Jiminy Cricket and Power Wheels
    F#                      C#
And memories of Happy Meals
F#                            B
Sometimes I look at the stars
    F#                           C#
And think about how small we are
F#                            
Sweating it out in the pressure 
          B
machine
F#                      C#
Good till the last drop

[Chorus]

G#m     C#           F#       
    Why    don't you say 
C#/F   D#m
little things?
G#m        C#              F#   
    Butterflies don't just dance
    C#/F   D#m
 on a string
G#m          C#       F#         
    It feels like you clipped all
 C#/F      D#m
 their wings
          G#m          C#         
And every year goes by faster than
     F#  C#/F   D#m
 the one before

( F#  D#m  C#/F  B )
( F#  D#m  C#/F  B )

[Third Part]

      F#                        
We've had that treadmill now for 
        B
months
  F#                              C#
I think she might've used it once
     F#                        
If I shut my mouth and keep the 
       B
peace
       F#                          
She'll cook my eggs in bacon grease
 C#

F#                              B
Life'll grow you a big red rose
     F#                            
Then rip it from beneath your nose
C#

F#                                
Run it through the pressure 
  B
machine
    F#                             
And spit you out a name tag memory
 C#


[Outro] G#m  C#  F#  C#/F  D#m
