G1
The mi- - nus is love-less,
He talks to the land
G1
And the leaves fall
And the pond over-ices.
G1
She don’t know the sys-tem, plus
G6sus2,4 Gmaj7
She don’t un- - -derstand
G1
She’s got all the wrong fu- - ses and spli-ces
G1
She’s not gonna fix it up too easy.
G1
The mask- ing tape tan-gles,
It’s stic-ky and black. And
G1
The cop-per
Proud headed Queen Lizzie
G1
Con-ducts little char-ges
G6sus2,4 Gmaj7
That don’t get charged back.”
Well, the technical man- - -u- -al’s bus-y
G1
She’s not gonna fix it up too easy.
And she holds out her flash- light
G1
And she shines it on me.
She wants me to tell her
G1
What the trouble might be.
G1
Well, I’m learning
It’s peaceful
G6sus2,4 Gmaj7
With a good dog and some trees,
Out of touch with the break- down
G1
Of this cen-tury
G1
They're not gonna fix it up
Too easy

We once loved - together
And we floodlit that time
Input – output – electricity
But the lines overloaded
And the sparks started flying
And the loose wires
Were lashing out at me
She's not gonna fix it up
Too easy
But she hold out her candle
And she shines it in
And she begs him to show her
How to fix it again
While the song that he sang her
To soothe her to sleep
Runs all through her circuits
Like a heartbeat
G1
She's not gonna fix it up
