A F♯m E



🤘 Verse 1:
G      A                  Bm
Voices come from down the hall
G     A                 Bm
In my room, all painted white
G         A              Bm
I have my bat and rubber ball
G         A                  Bm
I like to sleep with them at night

         C   B   Am
But now
I'm all smiles
    C           B             Am
The good little shots must be winning
          C     B  Am
Yes, they crank my dial
   C                       D
My motor is stalled but my wheels are still spinning


🤘 Chorus:
A                      E
Daddy won't discuss me
F♯m                    D
What a state I must be?
A
Mommy couldn't stand
F♯m                   E
Living with a wind-up toy


🤘 Verse 2:
G      A                   Bm
All my friends live on the floor
G    A             Bm
Tiny legs and tiny eyes
G               A               Bm
They're free to crawl under the door
G                A             Bm
And, and someday soon, so will I

         C   B   Am
But now
I'm all smiles
      C           B              Am
These good little shocks must be workin'
       C  B  Am
I'm so happy now
         C                          D
Look, my fingers don't shake and my head isn't jerkin'


🤘 Chorus:
A                     E
Daddy won't discuss me
F♯m                   D
What a pain I must be?
A
Mommy couldn't stand
F♯m                    E
Having such a wound-up boy

A                     E
Doctors wanna check me
F♯m                   D
Poke me and dissect me
A                    F♯m                     E
What do they expect, feelings from a wind up toy?
                                     F♯m E
I don't think so
I'm just a wind-up toy
          D
A wind-up toy


🤘 Bridge:
Bm                       C
I'm lost in a nightmare, shiny white halls
        G
Drawing rats on the wall
Bm                    C
Solitary confinement, chained in a cell
           D
Got my own private hell

C B Am x3
C D



🤘 Chorus:
A                    E
Preacher crucifies me
F♯m                   D
Warden wants to fry me
A
I was never young
F♯m                 E
Never just a little boy

A                     E
Daddy won't discuss me
F♯m                       D
Oh, what a pain I must be?
A
Mama couldn't stand
F♯m                    E
Having such a wound-up boy

I'm just a wind-up toy
              D
I'm a wind-up toy
                   F♯m E
I'm just a wind-up toy
                   D
I'm just a wind-up toy
                   F♯m E
I'm just a wind-up toy
                   D
Wind-up toy, wind-up toy
                   F♯m
I'm just a wind-up toy
        E          D
Wind-up toy, wind-up toy
                   F♯m E
I'm just a wind-up toy
                   D
I'm just a wind-up toy
