Verse 1: (piano arranged for guitar)
Below is roughly what the piano is playing. It's a lot easier to play
on a piano than a guitar. Stick with the basic chords. The timing has
been stretched to fit the lyrics.

I heard you on the wireless back in fifty two
Lying a-wake in bed then tuning in on you
If I was young it didn't stop you coming through
Oh - ah - oh.
Verse 2:
D G6 Asus4/A A/Asus4/A
They took the credit for your second symphony
Rewritten by machine and new technology
And now I understand the problems you can see
(Oh-a-oh) I met your children
(Oh-a-oh) What did you tell them ?
Chorus
D A
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
D A G
Pictures came and broke your heart
A Bm
(Oh-a-oh-oh-oh)
Verse 3:
And now we meet in an abandoned studio
We hear the playback and it seems so long ago
And you remember the jingles used to go
(Oh-a-oh) You were the first one
(Oh-a-oh) You were the last one
(chorus)
D A G
In my mind and in my car, we
can't re-wind we've gone to far
A Bm
(Oh-a-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-a-oh-oh-oh)

In my mind and in my car, we

You are the radio star
