[F] [C] [Dm] [G] (Pause and wait for leader count in)
[C] I heard you [Dm] on the wireless [F] back in Fifty [G] two
[C] Lying a[Dm]wake intent on [F] tuning in on [G] you

[C] Oh a-[F]ohh [Dm] [G]
[C] They took the [Dm] credit for your [F] second sympho[G]ny
[C] Rewritten [Dm] by machine on [F] new technolo[G]gy,

[C] We hear the [Dm] playback and it [F] seems so long a[G]go
[C] And you re[Dm]member the [F] jingles used to [G] go
[C] Oh a-[F]ohh [Dm] You were the [G] first one
[C] Oh a-[F]ohh [Dm] You were the [G] last one
|Chorus:
