Jack Johnson - The News guitar chord

Jack Johnson THE NEWS

A Bm

A billion people died on the news tonight

A Bm

But not so many cried at the terrible sight

A

And mama said, "It's just make believe,

Bm

You can't believe everything you see,

D Dm A D Dm

So baby close your eyes to the lullabies

A

On the news tonight."

A Bm

Who's the one to decide that it would be all right

A Bm

To put the music behind the news tonight?

A

Well mama said, "You can't believe everything you hear

Bm D

The diagetic world is so unclear

Dm A

So baby close your ears"

Bm

[[:On the news tonight,

F#m

On the news tonight,:]]

D Dm A

The unobtrusive tones on the news tonight.

F#m E

And mama said, "Mmm, mmm."

A

Why don't the newscasters cry

Bm

When they read about people who die?

A

At least they could be decent enough

Bm

To put just a tear in their eye.

A

But mama said, "It's just make believe

Bm

You can't believe everything you see

D Dm A D Dm

So baby close your eyes to the lullabies

A

On the news tonight."
