Verse 1:
A Asus2 Bm... D
Got this feeling that today doesn't like me
A Asus2 Bm... D
Oh, the air tastes like flowers and paint
A Asus2 Bm... D
There's a sink full of bottles and cutlery
A Asus2 Bm... D
And the carÂ’s got a list of complaints
Chorus 1:
F#m E D
I just wish I were a toothbrush or a solder gun
F#m E A
Make me something somebody can use
Verse 2:
A Asus2 Bm... D
We can wish on the pop of a light bulb
A Asus2 Bm... D
Or those photos lying yellowed and curled
A Asus2 Bm... D
Lose some boxes near abandoned electronics
A Asus2 Bm... D
In the corners of the basements of the world
Chorus 2:
F#m E D
Guess our wishes don't do dishes or brake repairs
F#m E A
Make them something somebody can use
Verse 3:
A Asus2 Bm... D
Got a face full of ominous weather
A Asus2 Bm... D
Smirking smile off a high pressure ridge
A Asus2 Bm... D
Got more faults than the state of California
A Asus2 Bm... D
And the heart is a badly built bridge
Chorus 3:
F#m E D
Seems the most I have to offer doesn't offer much
F#m E A
Make it something somebody can use
F#m E A
Make this something somebody can use
