My Bodys A Machine

C E C

[Verse 1]
     Em                      F
I woke up screaming and swearing in 
Spanish
    C
Clueless to the sounds and smells of
 people around me
             Em
Washed my face in the cracked sink
              F                    
Walked a stained carpet, kissed 
            C
your naked shoulder and I took to 
the street
      Em                           
The trip home isn't is as it always
        F
 was and always will be
          C
Was a stain of pleasant taste of you
 still in my mouth
      Em                F      
When I quit smoking I ran out of 
           C
good reasons to leave the house


[Pre-Chorus]
     G                             
The day breaks the skyline like 
                 F               
it's not even there, gotta get as 
                           Em
quick as I can back to safe or 
nowhere

[Chorus]
       C
This isn't a healing process, I'm 
not on the mend
    Em                             
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you 
            C                      
terribly and I need to remember 
                  Em
that my body's a machine,
F                    C
 my body is a machine


[Verse 2]
      C                            
And you look so tiny and scared in 
                         Em
the kitchen doing the dishes on your
 little tippy-toes
      C                         
I remember before the wreckage I 
swung your arms from side to side
Em

           F                       
Danced a waltz on the kitchen tiles
           C
 and the last time that I touched 
you
would be when I brushed your 
                   Em             
shoulder in the corridor of our old 
F
house
                  C
We kicked and screamed about whether
 I was gonna get my bunk back
                         Em        
 but what I was really saying was I
 still loved you and you were 
   F                               
screaming, "get the fuck out of my 
       G
house"


[Pre-Chorus]
G                                 
The day breaks the skyline like 
                     F           
it's not even there, gotta get as 
                            Em
quick as I can back to safe or 
nowhere


[Chorus]
       C
This isn't a healing process, I'm 
not on the mend
      Em                           
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you 
            C                      
terribly and I need to remember 
                 Em
that my body's a machine,
F                     C
 my body is a machine


[Verse 3]
                          Am
You said it was just another thing 
that you never explained to me
          Dm                    
I was pit-walking a median strip 
          A                   Am
near my parents house - going about 
sixty
       Am                        
And I flew for the first and only 
       Dm         A
time in my life
