G#           Fm       C
I'm just a broken machine
 C                      G#
With all the layers of dust
                             A#

I'm just a broken machine
Though the record may spin
All my lights have gone dim
They've gone dim
They've
I'm just a broken machine
Not who I used to be
I'm spinning out of control
Now it's time to go

Chorus:

Take a little spark

From a battery

Electricity

         A#
To your broken machine

Hey I'm a broken machine
I can do anything
I've got nothing to hide
Now I start to dream
I'm a mechanical thing
With a layer of shit
And nothing bothers me now
My wheels are my wheels

Chorus:
Take a little spark
From a battery
Electricity
And put me back together
Back together
Yeah
Take a human heart
Add some vanity
Authenticity
And put them all together
Do whatever
To your broken machine

    C
My head goes forward and my heart goes back
My head goes forward and my heart goes back
    G#
My head goes forward and my heart goes back
    Fm            A#
My head goes, my heart goes
My head goes forward and my heart goes back
My head goes forward and my heart goes back
My head goes forward and my heart goes back
My head goes, my heart goes

Hey, I'm a broken machine
I can do anything
I've got nothing to hide
Now I start to dream
I'm a mechanical thing (Take a little spark)
I can do anything
Nothing bothers me now
Now I start to dream
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la
La la la la la la, la la la, la
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la
