Also my second version F I'd sit alone and watch your light Gm My only friend through teenage nights Bb And everything I had to know Gm Bb F I heard it on my radio Bb F Radio You gave them all those old time stars Through wars of worlds - invaded by Mars You made 'em laugh - you made 'em cry You made us feel like we could fly F So don't become some background noise Bb A backdrop for the girls and boys Who just don't know or just don't care Gm And just complain when you're not there F You had your time, you had the power Gm You've yet to have your finest hour Bb F Bb F Radio F All we hear is Radio ga ga Radio goo goo Radio ga ga All we hear is Radio ga ga Radio blah blah Eb C Radio what's new? Bb C Bb C F Radio, someone still loves you!
