A Bm AA billion people died on the news tonight
BmBut not so many cried at the terrible sight
AWell mama said
C#mIt's just make believe
BmYou can't believe everything you see
D DmSo baby close your eyes to the lullabies
A BmOn the news tonight
 
A Bm AWho's the one to decide that it would be alright
BmTo put the music behind the news tonight
AWell mama said
C#mYou can't believe everything you hear
BmThe diagetic world is so unclear
D DmSo baby close your ears
BmOn the news tonight
F#mOn the news tonight
Bm F#mThe unobtrusive tones on the news tonight
AAnd mama said
EMmm
 
A BmWhy don't the newscasters cry when they read about people who die
A BmAt least they could be decent enough to put just a tear in their eyes

C#mIt's just make believe
 
You cant believe everything you see
Bm D DmSo baby close your eyes to the lullabies
A Bm AOn the news tonight

This is my first tab, so go easy on me if you notice any flaws.
Listen to the song for the timing. Thanks K-C, and Chris for getting
me started on guitar, and helpin a brother out when needed. Much Love.
Later, Jake.
