Am          - Bm           - C            - D

      2095,         2095,        2095,          2095

Am                - Bm                   - C                    - D

    I love you,           sincerely,       yours truly,         yours truly.

 

    Am                                     Em

1.       I sent a message to another time,

                      Dm                 Em                     Am

    but as the days unwind, this I just can't believe.

                                        Em

    I sent a note across another plane,

                     Dm                     Em                       Am

    maybe it's all a game, but this I just can't conceive.

                    Em           - F - G

    Can you hear me ?

 

    Am                                     Em

2.        I drive the very latest hovercar,

                             Dm                        Em                            Am

    I don't know where you are, but I miss you so much till then.

                                                 Em

    I met someone who looks a lot like you,

                           Dm                         Em          Am

    she does the things you do, but she is an IBM.

Am          - Bm           - C            - D

      2095,         2095,        2095,          2095

Am                - Bm                   - C                    - D

    I love you,           sincerely,       yours truly,         yours truly.

 

    Am                                                  Em

3.        She's only programmed to be very nice,

                          Dm                    Em                  Am

    but she's as cold as ice, whenever I get too near.

Am                                                 Em

    She tells me that she likes me very much,

                      Dm               Em                            Am   - Em - F - G

    but when I try to touch, she makes it all too clear.

 

    Am                                        Em

4.        She is the latest in technology,

                          Dm           Em                        Am

    almost mythology, but she has a heart of stone.

Am                                      Em

    She has an I.Q. of one-thousand-one,

                    Dm                               Em               Am

    she has a jumpsuit on, and she's also a telephone.

Am          - Bm           - C            - D

      2095,         2095,        2095,          2095

Am                - Bm                   - C                    - D

    I love you,           sincerely,       yours truly,         yours truly.

   Am                                   Em

5.      I realize that it must seem so strange

                          Dm                    Em                         Am

    that time has rearranged, but time has the final word.

Am                                               Em

    She knows I think of you, she reads my mind,

                      Dm                               Em                   Am       - Em - F - G

    she tries to be unkind, she knows nothing of our world.

 

    Am                                               Em

6.        Although her memory banks overflow,

                           Dm                             Em

    no one would ever know, for all she says: "Is that what you want ?"

Am                                          Em

    Maybe one day I'll feel her cold embrace

                        Dm                 Em                        Am

    and kiss her interface, 'til then, I'll leave her alone.

    Am            - Bm                 - C                    - D

    I love you,          sincerely,       yours truly,       yours truly.
