SAD SONGS (SAY SO MUCH)
Year: 1984
Album: BREAKING HEARTS
Writers: Elton John\ Bernie Taupin
[Intro]
C F G C C F G C
[Verse]
CGuess there are times when we all need to share a Flittle pain
And ironing out the Grough spots
Is the hardest part when F/Cmemories reCmain
And it's Ctimes like these when we all need to hear the Fradio
`Cause from the Glips of some old singer
We can share the troubles F/Cwe already Cknow
[Chorus]
CTurn them on, turn them on
Turn on those Fsad songs
When all hope is Ggone
Why don't you tune in and turn them Con
They reach into your Croom ohh ohhh
Just feel their Fgentle touch
When all hope is Ggone
Sad songs say so Cmuch
[Verse]
If someone else is Csuffering enough to Fwrite it down
When every single Gword makes sense
Then it's easier to F/Chave those songs Caround
The kick inside Cis in the line that finally Fgets to you
and it feels so good to Ghurt so bad
And suffer just enough to F/Csing the Cblues
[Chorus]
CTurn them on, turn them on
Turn on those Fsad songs
When all hope is Ggone
Why don't you tune in and turn them Con
They reach into your Croom ohh ohhh
Just feel their Fgentle touch
When all hope is Ggone
Sad songs say so Cmuch
[Bridge]
CSad songs, they Fsay
Sad Dmsongs, they Gsay
CSad songs, they Fsay
Sad Dmsongs, they Gsay so F/CmuGch
[Chorus]
CTurn them on, turn them on
Turn on those Fsad songs
When all hope is Ggone
Why don't you tune in and turn them Con
They reach into your Croom ohh ohhh
Just feel their Fgentle touch
When all hope is Ggone
Sad songs say so Cmuch
[Outro]
When all hope is Ggone, sad songs say so Cmuch.
