My Bodys A Machine chords by Wil Wagner

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
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                C
Walked a stained carpet, kissed your naked shoulder and I took to the street
   Em                  F
The trip home isn't is as it always was and always will be
     C
Was a stain of pleasant taste of you still in my mouth
   Em        F         C
When I quit smoking I ran out of good reasons to leave the house

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


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


Verse 2:
   C                           Em
And you look so tiny and scared in the kitchen doing the dishes on your little tippy-toes
   C                              Em
I remember before the wreckage I swung your arms from side to side
      F                 C
Danced a waltz on the kitchen tiles and the last time that I touched you
                        Em       F
would be when I brushed your shoulder in the corridor of our old house
         C
We kicked and screamed about whether I was gonna get my bunk back
             Em                     F                   G
 but what I was really saying was I still loved you and you were screaming, "get the fuck out of my house"


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


Chorus:
    C
This isn't a healing process, I'm not on the mend
   Em                    C                    Em
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you terribly and I need to remember 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               A          Am
I was pit-walking a median strip near my parents house - going about sixty
    Am                Dm     A
And I flew for the first and only time in my life


If they hit me, they hit me x8:

They hit me if they


They hit me if they hit me x8:

They hit me if they
