Intro: |C |Csus4|C |Csus4
Verse 1
C Csus4
Where did we go?
C Csus4 C
When was the moment that we broke in two?
Csus4
I think I know
C Csus4 G
In fact I am sure I can blame it on you
F/C C
I remember the first big surprise
G F/C C
The day you came home with your infrared eyes
Am G/B C Dm7
I looked inside them, but all I could see
F/C G C/G G7
Were tiny reflections of me
Chorus
F/C C
But it�s not me it�s you, what you�re turning into
Dm7 C
Is some kind of something that I never knew
F/C C
You used to be OK and I liked you that way
Am Am7/G D7/F#
But I don�t think that I like you better
F/C G C Csus4
No I don�t think that I like you better
Verse 2
C Csus4
You started out small
C Csus4 C
Some gills and some wings and a few extra thumbs
C Csus4
Now you�re thirteen feet tall
C Csus4 G
Even when you�re asleep your machinery hums
F/C C
And I�m tired of the evenings I spend
G F/C C
Making small talk with your new robot friends
Am G/B C Dm7
And their stupid insistence on scanning my iris
F/C G C/G G7
When they know damn well who I am
Chorus
F/C C
And you look like the victim of a surgical crime
Dm7 C
A little Darth Vader, a little Optimus Prime
F/C C
You used to be OK and I liked you that way
Am Am7/G D7/F#
But I don�t think that I like you better
F/C G Ab
No I don�t think that I like you better
{guitar solo]

Verse 3
C Csus4
So that�s how it goes
C Csus4 C
Snap your mandibles once to say you understand
Csus4
Now hold me close
C Csus4 G
Wait, now that�s too close, you�re crushing my hand
F/C C
I can tell by that shrieking alarm
G F/C C
That your weapons systems are active and armed
Am G/B C Dm7
Do me a favor and power them down
F/C G C/G G7
Just so we don�t have a scene
Chorus
F/C C
And I wish it was different, but we�re just not the same
Dm7 C
At least we got someone we know we can blame
F/C C
You used to be OK and I liked you that way
Am Am7/G D7/F#
But I don�t think that I like you better
F/C G C
No I don�t think that I like you better
Outro: |C |Csus4|C |Csus4|C |
