On The Radio - Regina Spektor
Tuning: , E A D G B E
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
This is how it
works
It feels a lit
tle worse
Than when we d
rove our hears
e
Right through
that screaming
crowd
While laughing
up a storm
Until we were
just bone
Until it got s
o warm
That none of u
s could sleep
And all the st
yrofoam
Began to melt
away
We tried to fi
nd some worms
To aid in the
decay
But none of th
em were home
Inside their c
atacomb
A million anci
ent bees
Began to sting
our knees
While we were
on our knees
Praying that d
isease
Would leave th
e ones we love
And never come
again
[Hook]
On the radio
We heard Novem
ber Rain
That solo's re
al long
But it's a pre
tty song
We listened to
it twice
'Cause the DJ
was asleep
[Verse 2]
This is how it
works
You're young u
ntil you're no
t
You love until
you don't
You try until
you can't
You laugh unti
l you cry
You cry until
you laugh
And everyone m
ust breathe
Until their dy
ing breath
No, this is ho
w it works
You peer insid
e yourself
You take the t
hings you like
And try to lov
e the things y
ou took
And then you t
ake that love
you made
And stick it i
nto some
Someone else's
heart
Pumping someon
e else's blood
And walking ar
m in arm
You hope it do
n't get harmed
But even if it
does
You'll just do
it all again
[Outro]
And on the rad
io
You'll hear No
vember Rain
That solo's aw
ful long
But it's a goo
d refrain
You'll listen
to it twice
'Cause the DJ
is asleep
On the radio
On the radio
On the radio (
uh-oh)
On the radio (
uh-oh)
On the radio (
uh-oh)
