[Verse 1]
A                            E
 We're on the ride but it’s not
                    D    A
 like they said it was
                       E
You had a plan but it wasn't
                D    A
quite good enough
                            E
You're in the race but you just
                    D    A
feel like giving up
                         E
You have a song and you just
             D     A
wanna turn it up

[Pre-Chorus]

Jump on your feet, get up and let’s go
 D
Yeah, you dance when I say so

[Chorus]
A
 She likes to dream,
        E/G#         D
 I can see it in her eyes
         D
She's on Automatic
A            E/G#                 D
 At 17 only wants what she can't find
         D
She's on Automatic

A                     E
 Catching up wasn't quite
                    D     A
 like they said it was
                    E
Finding love isn't fun
                 D     A
if it hurts too much
                          E
Losing friends cause you can't
                D     A
always stay in touch
                     E
A broken heart only comes
               D    A
up from growing up

A
 A pretty girl with a
   E/G#                D
 spark that she can't hide
         D
She's on Automatic
