"Radio" (R. Sexsmith)
Use a capo on the second fret.
[Intro]: G7  
G7The clowns are running the circus/the show is run of the mill.
They’ve picked all the berries that grew on CBlueberry Hill.
G7The shameless and the appalling/have sunk things to a new low,
What has become of the world that Cwe used to know?
[Chorus]:
Did I drFeam it? GWhat I Cmean is, I could’ve Fswore it Ghad a sCoul,
Mhmm I could Fhear it, Gsat right Amnear it/ Back when my G7whole world..
…was the radioC  
G7Time was when people could move you/with just a voice and a song.
I wish all those hacks would go back to Cwhere they belong
G7The daydream had to make way for/the nightmare that was to be,
Where grace and beauty are hung and Cburied at sea.
[Chorus]:
Did I drFeam it? GWhat I Cmean is, I could’ve Fswore it Ghad a sCoul,
Mhmm I could Fhear it, Gsat right Amnear it/ Back when my G7whole world …
…was the radioC  
[Middle 8]:
And Emeven though the writing’s on the Am7wall (wall)
It's Emthrough rose-coloured glasses I Am7recall (recall)
That Dgolden age Cof the Bordinary Aday...
G7 G7 C
[Chorus]:
Did I drFeam it? GWhat I Cmean is, I could’ve Fswore it Ghad a soCul,
Mhmm I could Fhear it, sGat right Amnear it/ Back when my G7whole world …
…was the radio, Cwhoa-oh-oh-oh.
G7The clowns are running the circus/the show is run of the mill
They picked all the berries that grew on CBlueberry Hill.
