She Talks to the TV By Jeff Gilpin

[A]While I’m in the other room
I hear a conversation [E]going
A [E7]little time will pass
And there is no sign of [A]slowing
So I go on in there to [D]see [E]
She’s talking to the [A]TV [E]
[A]It’s not as bad as you may think
She knows it doesn’t talk [E]back
[E7]And I’m here if she feels
That it’s conversation she [A]lacks
But I figure it’s best to let her [D]be [E]
When she talks to the [A]TV [E]
Chorus
[F]She might disagree with a [C]comment being made
[F]Or she might not like the way the plot is [C]flowing
[F]She might sympathize even [C]though she realizes
It’s [E]not her inside voice and her [E7]feelings are over flowing
[A]I remember way back when
I heard it for the [E]first time
[E7]She spoke words quite clearly
And a question came to [A]my mind
Was she just talking to [D]me [E]
Or talking to the [A]TV [E]
[A]But by what she said though
I had my confir[E]mation
I [E7]said you know they can’t hear you
And that brought on irri[A]tation
From then on I just let her [D]be [E]
When she talks to the [A]TV [E]
Chorus
[F]She might disagree with a [C]comment being made
[F]Or she might not like the way the plot is [C]flowing
[F]She might sympathize even [C]though she realizes
It’s [E]not her inside voice and her [E7]feelings are over flowing
[A]Well it hasn’t gotten any worse
And it hasn’t gotten [E]better
I’ve [E7]kind of learned to live with it
When she does it I just [A]let her
Besides it’s not hurting [D]me [E]
When she talks to the [A]TV [E]
[A]I worry from time to time
When I’m lying in the [E]sack
[E7]Not sure what I’d do if
She hears it talking [A]back
That’s a sight I hope I never [D]see [E]
When she talks to the [A]TV

. I do like the idea behind the song.
