Intro
[C] [F] [G] [C] [C] [F] [G] [C]
Verse
[C] [F]
Guess there are times when we all need to share a little pain
[G]
And ironing out the rough spots
[F/C] [C]
Is the hardest part when memories remain
[C] [F]
And it's times like these when we all need to hear the radio
[G]
`Cause from the lips of some old singer
[F/C] [C]
We can share the troubles we already know
Chorus
[C]
Turn them on, turn them on
[F]
Turn on those sad songs
[G]
When all hope is gone
[C]
Why don't you tune in and turn them on
[C]
They reach into your room ohh ohhh
[F]
Just feel their gentle touch
[G]
When all hope is gone
[C]
Sad songs say so much
Verse
[C] [F]
If someone else is suffering enough to write it down
[G]
When every single word makes sense
[F/C] [C]
Then it's easier to have those songs around
[C] [F]
The kick inside is in the line that finally gets to you
[G]
and it feels so good to hurt so bad
[F/C] [C]
And suffer just enough to sing the blues
Chorus
[C]
Turn them on, turn them on
[F]
Turn on those sad songs
[G]
When all hope is gone
[C]
Why don't you tune in and turn them on
[C]
They reach into your room ohh ohhh
[F]
Just feel their gentle touch
[G]
When all hope is gone
[C]
Sad songs say so much
Bridge

Sad songs, they say

Sad songs, they say
[Dm] [G] [F/C] [G]
Sad songs, they say so much
Chorus
[C]
Turn them on, turn them on
[F]
Turn on those sad songs
[G]
When all hope is gone
[C]
Why don't you tune in and turn them on
[C]
They reach into your room ohh ohhh
[F]
Just feel their gentle touch

When all hope is gone

Sad songs say so much
