Helpless Automaton Men at Work
Intro: ( E D G A ) x2 /G
[E] I stay in my r[D]oom[G], all al[A]one in the gloom
[E] What need I of l[D]ight?[G] Machines they can [A]see in the night
[E] And I feel no p[D]ain[G], metal h[A]eart and a metal br[E]ain
But something is wr[D]ong, 'cause I st[G]ill feel that signal c[A]oming in so[G] [A] [D] [E] [G] [A] [D] [E]
[E] I stand at your d[D]oor[G], I guess I'll w[A]ait a moment m[E]ore
Your hall light comes [D]on[G], and-now-my-turn to f[A]ire upon
[E] But I wheel aw[D]ay[G], defer-my-plight, for an[A]other day
[E] To dream of your f[D]ace, but a v[G]ideo screen t[A]akes its place
[Em]Hey, oh it's tr[G]ue, I'm a h[D]elpless automaton, m[B]ake an ultimatum to [Em]you
It's tr[G]ue, mach[D]in'ry in my pocket, I've e[B]ven got a docket from y[E/F#]ou[E] [D/E] [D]
Solo: E/F# E D/E D G A D E G A D E
[E] I went to the m[D]an,[G] I told him a rob[A]ot is what I a[E]m,
But he just sm[D]iled[G], said I was a fr[A]actious child
[E] "Distrusted not R[D]usted" th[G]at's why I feel s[A]o disgusted
[E] But I know he's wr[D]ong, 'cause I h[G]aven't felt this w[A]ay for very long
[Em]Hey, oh it's tr[G]ue, I'm a h[D]elpless automaton, m[B]ake an ultimatum to [Em]you
It's tr[G]ue, mach[D]in'ry in my pocket, I've e[B]ven got a docket from y[Em]ou
It's tr[G]ue, I'm a h[D]elpless automaton, m[B]ake an ultimatum to [Em]you
It's tr[G]ue, mach[D]in'ry in my pocket, I've e[B]ven got a docket from y[E/F#]ou[E]
