Time Machine 
A 
You lit the fire 
A 
Then drank the water 
A 
You slammed that door 
    G                F#m 
And left me standing all alone 

A 
We wrote the story 
A 
We turned the pages 
A 
You changed the end 
    G           F#m        
Like everybody said you would 

D 
I should've seen it coming 
D 
It should've sent me running 
D                            E  G 
That's what I get for loving yo-u. 

A 
If I had a time machine 
G 
And if life was a movie scene 
F#m 
I'd rewind and I'd tell me 
F  G 
Ru-n. 
A 
And we were never meant to be 
G 
So if I had a time machine 
F#m 
I'd go back and I'd tell me 
F  G 
Ru-n. 
D 
Ru-n. 

Am (little guitar solo thingy) 

A 
I got your letters 
A 
I got your words 
A 
I stacked them high 
    G                D 
And lit them all and let 'em burn 

A 
Your broken stories 
A 
Don't mean a thing 
A 
You made that bed 
G                F#m  
Good luck falling back asleep 

D 
I should've seen it coming 
D 
It should've sent me running 
D                            E  G 
That's what I get for loving yo-u.

A        C               G 
Oh, your love, it got me higher 
        Dm               Am 
Then it drove me up the wall 
               C 
But the higher up you go 
     G                D 
The further you will fall 


Am-G-F#m   F-G   Am-G-F#m  F-G 
Oh-hhhhh,  ohhh, Oh-hhhhh, ru-n.
