F Bb/F F
Guess there are times when we all need to share a little pain
G C/G G
And ironing out the rough spots
C Dm C
Is the hardest part when memories remain
F
And it's times like these when we all need to hear the radio
G
`Cause from the lips of some old singer
C
We can share the troubles we already know
Turn them on, turn them on
F
Turn on those sad songs
G
When all hope is gone
Em G Dm C
Why don't you tune in and turn them on
They reach into your room
F Bb/F F
Just feel their gentle touch
G
When all hope is gone
Em G Dm C
Sad songs say so much
If someone else is suffering enough to write it down
When every 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
chorus
F Bb/F
Sad songs, they say
Dm G C G
Sad songs, they say
F Bb/F F
Sad songs, they say
Dm G C/G G9
Sad songs, they say so much
chorus
G C F C
When all hope is gone, sad songs say so much.
