"I've Got A Spine" by Anthony Hill

Am, Dm, F, G
My shoes are getting squeakier with every step
I've been pacing round in circles since we met
You're the voice I can't ignore
You're the face I won't forget
I'm getting nowhere
And that is my regret

Your perplexing eyes are willing me to not give up
I'm perfecting my defences without much luck
As hopeless as a kitten
With a self-help book
I am loveable, I'm a teddy bear
Programmed to self destruct

Amaj, G
It's not gonna be easy
Cut cut cutting you out
Don't feel bad for me though
It's you I'm worried about

Amaj, Bm7, Em7
As long as I've got bones in my legs
A brain in my head
I'll be fine
I was not designed to be
Your property
I've got a spine

So I'll get by

I have been a puppet, you a master far too long
You're asking for disaster after stringing me along
When something just snapped
Bodies collapsed, I soldiered on
I'm a real boy, I'm not your toy
I've never felt so strong

It's not gonna be easy
Cut cut cutting you out
Don't feel bad for me though
It's you I'm worried about

As long as I've got bones in my legs
A brain in my head
I'll get by
I was not designed to be
Your property
I've got a spine

As long as I've got blood in my veins
An 'H' in my name
I'll get by
This is my philosophy
You're obviously
Surprised to find that
I've got a spine.

I usually like your covers more than your actual songs, so when I saw the title of this I was literally so surprised my eyes fell out. (I am having my mother type this for me before we're off to the hospital) You're fucking brilliant now!
