Regina Spektor - On The Radio

regina spektor
on the radio
begin to hope

this song is super easy , i play it all the time and the chords work well open or
barre , and they work for the ukulele too : )

C G Am F

C
this is how it works
G
it feels a little worse
Am
than when we drove our hearse
F
right through that screaming crowd
C
while laughing up a storm
G
until we were just bone
Am
until it got so warm
F
that none of us could sleep
C
and all the styrofoam
G
began to melt away
Am
we tried to find some worms
F
to aid in the decay
C
but all of them were home
G
inside their catacomb
Am
a million ancient bees
F
began to sting our knees
C
while we were on our knees
G
praying that disease
Am
would leave the ones we love
F
and never come again

C
and on the radio
G
we heard november rain
Am
that solo’s real long
F
but it’s a pretty song
C
we listened to it twice
G
cause the dj was asleep

Am F

C
this is how it works
G
your young until you’re not
Am
you love until you don’t
F
you try until you can’t
C
you laugh until you cry
G
you cry until you laugh
Am
and everyone must breathe
F
until their dying breath
C
no , this is how it works
G
you peer inside yourself
Am
you take the things you like
F
and try to love the things you took
C
then you take that love you made
G
and stick it into some
Am
someone else’s heart
F
pumping someone else’s blood
C
and walking arm in arm
G
you hope it don’t get harmed
Am
but even if it does
F
you’ll just do it all again

C
and on the radio
G
you’ll hear november rain
Am
that solo’s awful long
F
but it’s a good refrain
C
you’ll listen to it twice
G
cause the dj is asleep
Am
on the radio
F
on the radio
C
on the radio ( uh – oh )
G
on the radio ( uh – oh )
A
on the radio
F
on the radio

C G Am F

enjoy!
