Em
How did I get here?
Em C Em/F#
I am an autopiloted machine
Em
Preset destination
Em C Em/F#
And no control over anything
Em
It's incidental
Em C Em/F# Em
But I'd like the record to reflect that I tried
Em
But I fucked it up again
Em C Em/F#
And I passively watched it happen from the outside
C
But, Next Time...
G C
I'm gonna get it right
C
Next Time
Em/F#
I'm gonna get it right
Em
I'm gonna get it right
C G
And the electricity fills up my circuits
C G
Completing many strange connections in my mind
C G Em
And the path that power takes shapes me in microscopic ways
Am C G
That I have only just begun to recognize
C G
And when, true to form, I float above the current
C G
I become its conduit, and through me it is maintained
C G Em
So, am I really gonna spend my life in this cryostatic state
Am C G C
And when it's over, just shrug it off and say
C
Next Time
G C
I'm gonna get it right?
C
Next Time
G C
I'm gonna get it right
C
Next Time
G C
I'm gonna get it right
C
Next Time
G C
I'm gonna get it right
C G
My location cannot be triangulated by any means
C G
If I am less a point, and more of an in-between
C G
So I'll be picking up the pieces of a new type of machine
C G
And fitting two and two together how I please
C
Singing Next Time
G
I'm gonna get it right
C
And the Next Time
G
I'm gonna get it right
C
And the Next Time
G
I'm gonna get it right
C
And the Next Time...
