[Intro]
C E Fmaj7 Fm (x2)
[Verse]
C Well hello there, E did you have a nice day? Am I can tell by the look on your face, F you've got some things on your plate C I am your robot, (Beep-bop, beep) E May I please take your bags? (Bobbidy-beep) Am Feel free to deposit your worries F into the metaphorical trash C E That passive aggression, will do you no good Am F Try the direct approach, then a solution we might broach C E Once we move past it, we gotta think about tomorrow, Am F Fm I'll take care of the chores, the critical thinking is yo---ours
[Chorus]
C E You must remember, you're only human, Fmaj7 Fm and you've come so far, don't give up now C E You gotta keep going, keep your wits about you, Fmaj7 Fm face adversity, remain complex and incomplete
[Verse]
C Hold it right there (stop) E Give me that can of beans (hand it over) Am F I will open it for you, you've got better things to do C Do not worry (let it go) E about little ol' me, (ain’t no thing) Am F I was built for this, my purpose is your ease C E If you're having difficulties, going to sleep, Am F let me sing you a song, help you drift along
[Bridge 1]
C E Close your eyes, relax your limbs, Am G F Fm open your mind, let the dreams begi--i-i-i----n

[Chorus]
C E Just remember, to stand before you can fly Fmaj7 Fm You're human only once, so give it a good try C E Follow your nose, or just follow your heart, Fmaj7 Fm Oh the choice is up to you, nobody else but you
[Bridge 2]
E Am While you were asleep I was contemplating F C Maybe I'm only human with rusted metal plating E Am and you're the robot, under constant repair F Fm But that's just silly, why would a robot have hair
[Verse]
C I can make life simple, (with ones and zeroes) E you can make mine obsolete (but please don’t) Am F Your memories they stick, mine I can’t delete C E We can both fake a smile, we can be confused at times Am F Fm We can both write poetry, and match simple rhy---ymes
[Chorus]
C E You must remember, you're only human Fmaj7 Fm You've got a ways to go, so put on a good show C E Keep it murky, or make it crystal clear, Fmaj7 Fm C Oh, the choice is up to you, no one but beautiful you---u
