Deep Purple - MTV: chords

        Em
I was driving through the night
Into an endless tunnel of fog
When it dawned on me something was wrong
I was in a trance, hypnotized
Bored beyond belief,
I was listening to the same old song

       A
I know every lick, every word every nuance
I'm on first name terms with the crew
        Em
But I'd better get used to this poop du jour
Sure as hell they won't play anything new

Chorus:
           B
Oh yes, I love you really
Classic Rock Radio
Oh, my dear it's time for bed
Time for you to go
Everyone is asleep

The pirates took to the water stole the charts
But sadly that didn't go down
well with those upstairs
Who require loyalty, the establishment considered
That the uncontrolled appreciation of music

Was a danger to royalty, the mighty empire roared
As Cash 'n' Everitt on the high seas
Looked like they'd get blown out of the water
They did of course eventually come ashore
As meek as mice or to be more accurate
as lambs to the slaughter

Chorus:
Oh yes, I love you really
I stand to attention
Oh, Fanny, I love you dearly
Something else I should mention?
You sweet thing

A#                   F
Let's not talk about MTV
Am                     G
I don't even want to start
   A#                      F
I want to take a look at Classic Rock Radio
C                         D
We're talking about the state of the art - x2

Mr Grover 'n' Mr Gillian
You must have made a million
The night that Frank Zappa caught on fire
Could you tell us all about it
Keep it short and use my version
Or everyone out there'll think I'm a liar
We can speak about bananas for one second

Just because I understand
You have to get them off your chest
But in the meantime while you're talking
Could you do some more of these here ID's
And then this station might maintain some interest

Chorus:
Oh yes, I love you dearly
But why do you exist?
Oh yes, I love you really
Is there something that I missed?
