Rick Springfield - Automatic
Tabbed by: http://www.andreasvockrodt.de
[Intro]
E
[Verse]
E
Living in a world where everybody's ga-ga
E
Shakin it faking it like they're all a YA YA
E
Find myself a girl with a name like Zsa Zsa
E
Pack up all my shit and move it down to Baja
E
If there's more to life than money shelter food sex
E
I gotta get it straight in my Cerebral cortex
E
Everybody's got the usual defects
E
Chalk it all up to automatic reflex
[Chorus]
E D
Yeah it's automatic yeah it's automatic baby don't be static
A
Everybody's got one
E
Yeah it's problematic you can lock it in the attic
G A
But it's automatic I know it's a hot one
[Interlude]
E
[Verse 2]
E
Seems to me the rules are getting stranger
E
Maybe emancipation's in danger
E
Every coalition is a new game changer
E
They all claim it's like Jesus-in-a-manger
E
I wanna speak free love free everyone to thrive
E
I don't really care if you're software or hard drive
E
No time to sit still bow out or shuck and jive
E
Get up stand up nobody's getting out alive
[Chorus 2]
E D
Yeah it's automatic yeah it's automatic baby don't be static
A
Everybody's got one
E
Yeah it's problematic you can lock it in the attic
G A
But it's automatic I know it's a hot one
[Interlude]
E
[Verse 3]
E
Don't want to sound like a carnival barker
D
This house of mirrors getting darker and darker
E
Better check your blood for the biomarker
D
Silhouette against the sun couldn't be starker
E
Everything I think and do's set by my DNA
D
Actions are automatic reflex foreplay
E
Sex drive crash dive so much-to-say
D E
Can't stop the ship once it's coming down the slipway
[Chorus 3]
E D
Yeah it's automatic yeah it's automatic baby don't be static
A
Everybody's got one
E
Yeah it's problematic you can lock it in the attic
G A
But it's automatic I know it's a hot one
[Interlude]
E
[Verse 4]
E
Living in a world of hypersensitivity
D
Everywhere I look everybody wants validity
E
Walking on eggshells state my proclivity
D
Somebody somewhere'll want to take a shot at me
E
Whether I believe in God, love or hot sex
E
Gotta be careful cos all this shit is complex
E
Whether I say it's live or Memorex
E
It's a suicide belt loaded with Semtex
[Chorus 4]
E D
Yeah it's automatic yeah it's automatic baby don't be static
A
Everybody's got one
E
Yeah it's problematic you can lock it in the attic
G A
But it's automatic I know it's a hot one
E
Yeah it's automatic yeah it's autocratic
D A
Baby don't you panic everybody's got one
E
You can be diplomatic you can be fanatic
G A E
Although it's enigmatic it's a loaded shotgun
