 A                       E
Lately I'm getting better
F#m                          E
Wish I could stay sick with you
      D                                 Dm7
But there's too many egos left to bruise

A                                  E
Call it a sin you call it what ever
F#m                    E
Eating deep inside of you
 D
Well if were me it's all I'd ever do

Stealing now and forever
I'll steal something good for you
But the criminal in me is no-one new

Til you find something better
When there's nothing left to use
And everything starts going down on you

Chorus:
A
I'm the generator,
                     F
Firing whenever you quit,
                 F#m
Yeah whatever it is,
                    G
You go out and it's on,
                D9
Yeah can't you hear my motor heart,
Dm                          G
You're the one that started it.

Standing out on a tether
Swing me around I'll spin your news
You let it down I'll hang around with you

Til you find something better
And there's no-one left to use
And everyone keeps going down on you

Chorus:
I'm the generator,
Firing whenever you quit,
Yeah whatever it is,
You go out and it's on,
Yeah can't you hear my motor heart,
Dm                          E
You're the one that started it. - x2

A
I'm the generator,

I'm the generator,
F
I'm the generator,
I'm the generator,
F#m
I'm the generator
I'm the generator
       G
you're on,
               D9
Yeah can't you hear my motor heart,
Dm                          G
You're the one that started it.
