G+G G minorGm
Have you heard
G+G C majorC
it was on the news
G+G G minorGm G+G C majorC DbDb D MajorD
your child can read you like a bedtime story
C majorC C minorCm
Like a Magazine
C majorC C minorCm
Like a has-been out to grass
C majorC C minorCm
Like afternoon T.V.
C majorC FF GbGb G+G
Why is my life going by so fast?
Dsus2Dsus2 E minorEm
Hello I love you
Dsus2Dsus2 E minorEm
Is there anybody in there?
Bb majorBb
Put down the phone
E minorEm
Shut up the shop
Bb majorBb E minorEm
Make all their techno babble stop
E minorEm FF
We'll find a short-waved frequency
G+G
the wave connecting you and me
D MajorD
Hello I love you.
The other verses and choruses follow those progressions.
***The DmDm of the chorus may be a D, D5D5 or Dsus2Dsus2 (I don't hear a 3rd beneath his
voice, so use what sounds best to you there).
The climbing "Hello" part stems off the final chorus:
Bb majorBb E minorEm FF G+G A minorAm FF G+G D MajorD
The outtro is similar to the climbing part and chorus, but with some variations,
like a walking part E MajorE FF GbGb G+G and others. Song ends on D.
