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

[C] [Em] [C] [Em]
