Am/F 
I found the bones of all your ghosts 
Em 
Locked in the wishing well 
Fmaj7 
While birdsong gourmets dragged empty nets 
G 
I slumbered in my shell 
Am/F 
In mitternacht, die mensch-maschine 
Em 
Kissed me on my eyes 
Fmaj7 
I rose and left the fire-ladies 
G 
Glowing lonely in the night 
Fmaj7 
With all the pornographers 
Em  A 
Burning torches beneath the sea 
 
Em   F   G 
I want to be a machine 
Em   F   G 
I want to be a machine 
Em   F   G 
I want to be a machine 
Em 
I want to be a machine
 

Am/F 
I stole a cathode face from newscasts 
Em 
And a crumbling fugue of songs 
Fmaj7 
From the reservoir of video souls 
G 
In the lakes beneath my tongue 
Am/F 
In flesh of ash and silent movies 
Em 
I walked at boulevards again 
Fmaj7 
A nebula of unfinished creatures 
G 
From the lifetimes of my friends 
Fmaj7   Em  A 
I hope your innocence has depraved me 

(Chorus) 

Am/F 
Broadcast me, scrambled clean 
Em 
Or free me from this flesh 
Fmaj7 
Let the armchair cannibals take their fill 
G 
In every cell across wilderness 
Am/F 
We'll trip such a strangled tango 
Em 
We'll waltz a wonderland affair 
Fmaj7 
Let's run to meet the tide tomorrow 
G 
Leave all emotion dying there 
Fmaj7   Em  A 
In the star cold beyond all of your dreams 

(Chorus)
