machines

i won't get there any faster       E B C D
if i follow close behind her       E B A
will she turn and look at me       E B C D
sitting here so patiently          E B A G

every day i operate machines       A D A D    (chorus)
sometimes i do it in my dreams     A D A G.D.
that one behind me won't budge     A D A D
get me if i slip on sludge         A G D C

if mass appeal is what you need    E ...
to call yourself successful
we'll have to teach the kids some more
'bout what's really artfull
                                              (chorus)
he wrote her a romantic note       b C D e    (bridge)
and didn't stay to hear the vote   b C G D
walk away before connection        b C D e
won't get him the election         F C G

givin props to those that try      E ...
is what's gonna makes them fly
tell yourself you really matter
or you could be getting fatter                (chorus)
