Reply To: Future Soon chords
Ok, I’m doing this at work, so I can’t listen enough to make completely sure that I’m right, but I think this is it again with the lyrics in the chord chart:
D F#
Last week I left a note on Laura’s desk
Bm D7
It said I love you signed anonymous friend
G DM7/A
Turns out she’s smarter than I thought she was
G D F#
She knows I wrote it, now the whole class does too
Bm Bbaug
And I’m alone during couple skate
Bm E
When she skates by with some guy on her arm
G A G A
But I know that I’ll forget the look of pity in her face
G A G A
When I’m living in my solar dome on a platform in space
Chorus:
D A
Cause it’s gonna be the future soon
Bm G
And I won’t always be this way
D A
When the things that make me weak and strange get
Em D/F# G A
engineered away
D A
It’s gonna be the future soon
Bm G
I’ve never seen it quite so clear
Gm D Em A
And when my heart is breaking I can close my eyes and it’s already here
I’ll probably be some kind of scientist
Building inventions in my space lab in space
I’ll end world hunger I’ll make dolphins speak
Work through the daytime, spend my nights and weekends
Perfecting my warrior robot race
Building them one laser gun at a time
I will do my best to teach them
About life and what it’s worth
I just hope that I can keep them from destroying the Earth
[Repeat Chorus]
Bridge:
Bb F
Here on Earth they’ll wonder
Bb D
As I piece by piece replace myself
Bb F
And the steel and circuits will make me whole
Em Asus
But I’ll still feel so alone
Em Aaug
Until Laura calls me home
I’ll see her standing by the monorail
She’ll look the same except for bionic eyes
She lost the real ones in the robot wars
I’ll say I’m sorry, she’ll say it’s not your fault
Or is it?
And she eyes me suspiciously
Hearing the whir of the servos inside
She will scream and try to run
But there’s nowhere she can hide
When a crazy cyborg wants to make you his robot bride
[Repeat Chorus}
