Intro.: Em D G A G 

(Em D G A) 
I stay in my room, 
All alone in the gloom, 
What need I of light? 
Machines they can see in the night, 
And I feel no pain 
Metal heart and a metal brain, 
But something is wrong 
'cause I still feel that signal coming in so  (G A D Em X2) 
  
(Em D G A) 
I stand at your door, 
I guess I'll wait a moment more 
Your hall light comes on 
And now my turn to fire upon 
But I wheel away 
Defer my plight, for another day 
To dream of your face 
But a video scren takes its place 
  
(Em G D B) 
Hey, oh it's true 
I'm a helpless automaton, Make an ultimatum to you 
Hey, it's true 
Machin'ry in my pocket, I've even got a docket from you (Em B D A X2) (G A D Em X2) 

(Em D G A) 
I went to the man, I told him a robot is what I am, 
But he just smiled, said I was a fractious child 
"Distrusted not Rusted" That's why I feel so disgusted 
But I know he's wrong, 'cause I haven't felt this way for very long 
  
(Em G D B) 
Hey, it's true, 
I'm a helpless automaton, make an ultimatum to you 
Hey, it's true 
Machin'ry in my pocket, I've even got a docket from you 
It's true 
I'm a helpless automaton, make an ultimatum to you 
It's true 
Machin'ry in my pocket, I've even got a docket from you (Em B D A X2)
