[Verse 1]
C           Dm              G                
I heard you on the wireless back in Fifty-Two
C       Dm             G              
Lying awake intent to tuning in on you
C         Dm              G                     
If I was young it didn't stop you comin' through
C     Dm   G
Oh-ah Oh-ah
(Repeat for Verse 2)

C     Dm   
Oh-ah Oh-ah
G                  
I met your children
C     Dm   
Oh-ah Oh-ah
G                      
What did you tell them?

[Chorus 1]
C                F         
Video killed the radio star
C                F         
Video killed the radio star
C        G         Am             
Pictures came and broke your heart

Oh, ah-ah-ah oh

Video killed the radio star
C      G       Am       
In my mind and in my car
    C       G           Am         
We can't rewind, we've gone too far

Oh, ah-ah-ah oh
