1. Guess
there are times when we
all need to share a little pain,
G
and
ironing out the rough spots is the hardest part
F C
when
memories remain.
C F
And it’s times like these when
we all need to hear the radio,
G
’cause from the lips of some
old singer
F C
we can share the troubles
we already know.
C
F
Turn them on, turn them on, turn on those sad songs,
G G7 C
when all hope is gone, why don’t
you tune in and turn them on.
C C7 F
They reach into your room, oh, just feel their gentle
touch,
G G7 C
when all hope is gone, sad songs
say so much.
C F
2. If someone else is suffering enough, oh, to write it down,
G
when
every single word makes sense,
F C
then it’s easier to have those songs
around.
C C7 F
The kick inside is in the line that finally gets
to you,
G
and it feels so good to hurt so bad
F C
and
suffer just enough to sing the blues. So ...
+ CHORUS
F G
+ Sad songs they say,
sad songs they say,
F G F
G
sad
songs they say, sad songs they say so much. So ...
C
F
Turn them on, turn them on, turn on those sad
songs,
G G7 C
when all hope is gone, why don’t
you tune in and turn them on.
C C7 F
They reach into your room, oh, just feel their gentle
touch,
G G7 C
when all hope is gone, you know,
sad songs say so much.
G
G7 C
+ When all hope is gone,
you know, sad songs say so much,
G G7 C
when
every little bit of hope is gone, sad songs say so much,
G G7 C
when
every little bit of hope is gone, sad songs say so much ....
