Track 2 from the 1997 album "Whiplash"
Standard Tuning
Intro:
C Em C Em
Verse:
C Em
My TV's staring at me
C Em
It says 'go to sleep, go to sleep'
C Em
Turns me into a Siamese twin
C
Where do I start
Em
The TV screen begins
C Em
Plugs me into some holy geek
C Em
His point in life is incomplete
C Em C Em
My TV is telling me that only money will make me happy
Pre-Chorus:
C Em Am F
Hold the course and then sail
C Em Am F
Hold the course and then sail
Chorus:
C
Across the satellite beams
Em
Across the oceans and seas
Am F
To the lighthouse I could be
C
I see some soldiers with guns
Em
And they are killing for fun
Am F
They are killing to entertain me
Verse:
C Em
Caught between that world and this
C Em
I'd sell my soul for a Bond girl's kiss
C Em
Caught between that world and this
C Em
I'd sell my soul for a state of bliss
C Em C Em
My TV's telling me that all our money goes into the military
Pre-Chorus:
C Em Am F
Hold the course and then sail
C Em Am F
Hold the course and then sail
Chorus:
C
Across the satellite beams
G
Across the oceans or seas
Am F
to the lighthouse I could be
C
I see some soldiers with guns
G
And they are killing for fun
Am F
They were dying to entertain me
C
And then I heard your name
G
As the spaceman came
Am F
He came right through my screen
C
And then his lifeline broke
G
He began to choke
Am F
Jump cut to another scene
C G Am F
(Your health taken, your health taken, your health taken away)
We lost a friend to the sea
C G Am F
(Your health taken, your health taken, your health taken away)
We lost a friend to the sea
C G Am F
(Your health taken, your health taken, your health taken away)
We lost a friend to the sea
C G Am F
(Your health taken, your health taken, your health taken away)
