lyrics

X-Ray Riff Machine
Music: Fabio Serpe
Lyrics: Lincoln Fabricio, Ivan Justen Santana


D A/C# Bm Bm/A G
I was at the airport just waiting in line
D A/C# Bm Bm/A G
You caught my attention and I just couldn’t hide
Em B♭ D A/C# Bm Bm/A
Passing through the x-ray machine
Em B♭ D
You seemed like a princess about to be queen


D A/C# Bm Bm/A G
The machine beeped (bip-bip, bip): you had to come again
D A/C# Bm Bm/A G
“Take off all your rings”, said the guy working there
Em B♭ D A/C# Bm Bm/A
Passing through the x-ray machine
Em B♭ Bm Cmaj7
Again like a princess about to be queen


Amaj7 E/G#
I wish I was
G6 D/F#
That x-ray machine
Amaj7 E/G#
To keep forcing you
G6 D/F#
To pass through me

Amaj7 E/G#
To see you inside
G6 D/F#
My heart and eyes
Amaj7 E/G#
To keep you with me
G Bm Bm/A G D/F# Em D
Forever in line


D A/C# Bm Bm/A G
It beeped once more, once more come again
D A/C# Bm Bm/A G
You took off your earrings and the bracelets
Em B♭ D A/C# Bm Bm/A
Then again through the machine
Em B♭ Bm Cmaj7
Now you were our princess and our queen

Amaj7 E/G#
You took off your shoes
G6 D/F#
I wished the dress would come off too
Amaj7 E/G#
Your legs could kill
G6 D/F#
Above high heels

Amaj7 E/G#
You could even be
G6 D/F#
Like an Elvis’ queen
Amaj7 E/G#
And then I could be
G Bm Bm/A G D/F# Em
Your x-ray riff machine
