This is a song that Hank Green, one half of the "vlogbrothers", wrote while 
he was on his "This Machine Pwns n00bs Tour" to go out promote his album 
"This Machine Pwns n00bs", and he does this by playing his signature 
acoustic guitar with the words, what else, "This Machine Pwns n00bs" on the 
body. It's a song about this nerdy folky musician and his journey on the road. 
It's really a catchy tune and it will more than likely get stuck in your head 
for some time. If you have any problems with the timing and Hanks spazztic 
strumming patterns, just listen to the song or watch his Youtube video at:

Standard Tuning

Capo 3rd fret

Intro:

C (Strum down once)

Verse 1:

     C               Fmaj7    C
Well I don't want to be a big star
         C            Famj7                             C
And I've never really been a fan of folks who just want to go far
      G                       Fmaj7
But I do like to play on this guitar
    G                                  Fmaj7
And write these stupid songs in rental cars

Verse 2:

        C          Fmaj7  C
Now I'm headin' to Los    Angeles
                          G            C
And I can't stop though I really gotta piss
                                   Fmaj7     C
'Cause I'm late for the show gotta go, gotta go
                                    G              C
Put the pedal top the metal and I'm burnin' up the road

Pre-chorus 1:

      G                              Fmaj7
And I get there with five minutes to spare
        G                          Fmaj7
And the people there don't seem to care
      C                          Fmaj7        G
And I strap on my guitar and get ready to cut loose
  C          Fmaj7                               G
I hope these people think that this machine pwns n00bs

Chorus:

           C               Fmaj7
I't like a hedgehog with a flat can
      C        Fma7
And a star for Mario
       C          Fmaj7
Or the big dot in Pac-Man
       C      Fmaj7
Or the Konami code

And it makes me feel invincible 

When I'm up there on that stage
    C
The final boss has been destroyed

Long-distance or close-range
            G
It's like a super sniping shotgun

And it's body armor too

And I hope everyone agrees
     Fmaj7             G
That this machine pwns n00bs

Verse 3:

       C                   Fmaj7   C
I just finished my show in Phoenix A Z
                       G       C
God damnit if I didn't lose my keys
                                      Fmaj7  C
And the Nerd Fighters there all wanna hang   out
                          G    C
And go to Yogurt Land and In-N-Out

Pre-chorus 2:

G                                    Fmaj7
But we have to wait there on the sidewalk
G                       Fmaj7
Eating pizza with First Officer Spock
    C                Fmaj7     G
And now that they've been introduced
  C                    Fmaj7             G
I hope they agree that this machine pwns n00bs

Chorus:

           C               Fmaj7
I't like a hedgehog with a flat can
      C        Fma7
And a star for Mario
       C          Fmaj7
Or the big dot in Pac-Man
       C      Fmaj7
Or the Konami code

And it makes me feel invincible 

When I'm up there on that stage
    C
The level boss has been destroyed

Long-distance or close-range
            G
It's like a super sniping shotgun

And it's body armor too

And I hope everyone agrees
     Fmaj7             G       Fmaj7   C
That this machine pwns n00bs___________
