Sad Songs (Say So Much)  - Elton John

 

[ C  -  F  -  G ]

Guess there are times when we all need to share a little pain

And ironing out the rough spots

Is the hardest part when memories remain

And it's times like these when we all need to hear the radio

'Cause from the lips of some old singer

We can share the troubles we already know

 

Turn'em on, turn'em on, turn on those sad songs

When all hope is gone, why don't you tune in and turn them on?

They reach into your room, oh, just feel their gentle touch

When all hope is gone sad songs say so much

 

If someone else is sufferin' enough oh, to write it down

When ev'ry single word makes sense,

Then it's easier to have those songs around

The kick inside is in the line that finally gets to you

And it feels so good to hurt so bad

And suffer just enough to sing the blues

 

So, turn'em on, turn'em on, turn on those sad songs

When all hope is gone, why don't you tune in and turn them on?

They reach into your room, oh, just feel their gentle touch

When all hope is gone you know sad songs say so much

 

Sad songs they say

Sad songs they say

Sad songs they say

Sad songs they say so much

 

So, turn'em on(turn'em on), oh, turn'em on(turn'em on), turn on those sad songs

When all hope is gone, why don't you tune in and turn them on?

They reach into your room, oh, just feel their gentle touch

When all hope is gone, you know sad songs say so much

When all hope is gone, you know sad songs say so much

When ev'ry little bit of hope is gone, sad songs say so much

When ev'ry little bit of hope is gone, sad songs say so much

When all hope is gone, sad songs say so much

When ev'ry little bit of hope is gone, sad songs say so much

When everthing you do is goin' wrong, sad songs say so much
