[Verse 1]
Gb Gbmaj7
Start at eight
Gb7 B
See what you know
Bm Gb Db7sus4 Db7
What have you been through, make a list
Gb Gbmaj7
Now scrap the page
Gb7 B
Forget what you wrote
Bm Gb Db7sus4 Db7 Gb
Writing ain't supposed to be easier, no
Gb Gbmaj7
You've read the news
Gb7 B
And none of that worked
Bm Gb Db7sus4 Db7
To help you make art you don't hate
Gb Gbmaj7
But someone whispered
Gb7 B
"The big screen is cool"
Bm Ebm7 Db7sus4 Db7 Gb
So let's kill the blues at the talkies today
[Bridge]
Ebmaj7 Bb Dbmaj7 Ab
We'll hit the cinema as violence abounds
B Ab7 Fm7 Bb7
And Joker the Clown spoils the day
Ebmaj7 Bb Dbmaj7 Ab
On my phone there's a photograph or a minute long clip
B Ab7 Db7sus4 Db7
I opt against work to watch this
[Verse 2]
Gb Gbmaj7 Gb7 B
So here you sit in darkness locked in
Bm Gb Db7sus4 Db7
Your art may be richer, but your brain turned to shit
Gb Gbmaj7 Gb7 B
I tried the news, and it made me feel sick
Bm Ebm7 Db7sus4 Db7 Gb
The Joker took armistice and blew it to bits
[Bridge]
Ebmaj7 Bb Dbmaj7 Ab
I once heard it said that a man and his heart
B Ab7 Fm7 Bb7
Could change if you listened more than spoke
Ebmaj7 Bb Dbmaj7 Ab
But now I'm afraid that my listening days
B Ab7 Db7sus4 Db7
Will end when the credits do roll
[Verse 3]
Gb Gbmaj7 Gb7 B
Don't be alarmed if the chaos on screen
Bm Gb Db7sus4 Db7
Begins to resemble the world as it be
Gb Gbmaj7 Gb7 B
You've come this far, and now you should see
Bm Ebm7 Ab7 Db7 Gb
The uncanny parallels 'tween the talkies and... me
