Phillip Labes - A Tv Show Called Earth Acordes

[Verse]
                    F
what if aliens are real
                          G
and they live a trillion years
                    C            Em              Am
and they've watched every single one of us since birth
               F
What if aliens exist
                      G
as an endless conciousness
         C               Em            Am
But for fun they watch a tv show called Earth
 
                F                                 G
(and) There's a bunch of different storylines the moral isn't clear
        C              E7                  Am
And it feels like the writing's gone downhill in the last year
      F                       G
And everyone's a hero painted in the proper light
        C               E7               Am
And the show's in multicolor, though it acts so black and white
          F                                     G
In it's hundreth-millionth season for what it's worth
                  C
A tv show called Earth
 
                       F
As we gaze out into space,
                             G
they're a few feet from our face
         C                Em             Am
Eating popcorn drinking soda with their friends
                              F
Though to us it might seem cruel
                         G
how they keep a betting pool
        C               Em           Am
On the way the human storyline will end
 
        F                             G
'Cause everyone's a villain who just looks out for their own
        C              E7                     Am
And be careful picking favorites, 'cause they all end up as bones
         F                           G
And the ensemble is pretty good, the leads all mostly suck
        C               E7               Am
And recently they've trashed the set to make a couple bucks
       F                                 G
And a plot like that has not been seen before
            F            G             C
They might only have a couple seasons more
 
 C  F G   C  Em Am
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
 
                       F
And when the show is done
                    G
by war or storm or sun
   C                Em             Am
I wonder if they'd want to watch again
                                F
Or grow bored with what what we do
                          G
and move on to something new
         C                 Em          Am
Saying "Earth was decent, seven out of ten"
 
    F                                      G
"I liked the dancing and the music and the sea foam on the shore
            C                E7                Am
I wish the writers had been kind enough to sprinkle that in more
            F                          G
'Cause the war bits and the poverty, I wasn't a fan of
      C              E7                 Am
But I really dug on all the parts where humans fell in love"
 
          F                                 G
See they've watched us from our primordial dawn
          G                       A
Until the very last one of us was gone
    E7                Am             G             C
And one turns to the other with the clicker in his hand and says
 F                   G                C
"That was fun, let's see what else is on"
 
 C  F G   C  Em Am
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
