[Verse 1]
     Em                      F
I woke up screaming and swearing in Spanish
    C
Clueless to the sounds and smells of people around me
             Em
Washed my face in the cracked sink
              F                                C
Walked a stained carpet, kissed your naked shoulder and I took to the street
      Em                                   F
The trip home isn't is as it always was and always will be
          C
Was a stain of pleasant taste of you still in my mouth
      Em                F                 C
When I quit smoking I ran out of good reasons to leave the house


[Pre-Chorus]
     G                                              F                                          Em
The day breaks the skyline like it's not even there, gotta get as quick as I can back to safe or nowhere


[Chorus]
       C
This isn't a healing process, I'm not on the mend
    Em                                         C                                        Em
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you terribly and I need to remember that my body's a machine,
F                    C
 my body is a machine


[Verse 2]
      C                                                     Em
And you look so tiny and scared in the kitchen doing the dishes on your little tippy-toes
      C                                                            Em
I remember before the wreckage I swung your arms from side to side
           F                                  C
Danced a waltz on the kitchen tiles and the last time that I touched you
                                                Em             F
would be when I brushed your shoulder in the corridor of our old house
                  C
We kicked and screamed about whether I was gonna get my bunk back
                         Em                                         F                                      G
 but what I was really saying was I still loved you and you were screaming, "get the fuck out of my house"


[Pre-Chorus]
G                                                      F                                       Em
The day breaks the skyline like it's not even there, gotta get as quick as I can back to safe or nowhere


[Chorus]
       C
This isn't a healing process, I'm not on the mend
      Em                                       C                                       Em
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you terribly and I need to remember that my body's a machine,
F                     C
 my body is a machine


[Verse 3]
                          Am
You said it was just another thing that you never explained to me
          Dm                              A                   Am
I was pit-walking a median strip near my parents house - going about sixty
       Am                               Dm         A
And I flew for the first and only time in my life
