TV in my mind

VERSE
G                                                       Bm
I've been watching you on the TV in my mind

G                                                       Bm
You've got your own channel, it's number 45
G
There's a series on our dinners
Bm
And a re-run of your faint
G                                                       Bm
And a special about that kiss up by the church

BRIDGE
C                          D
It's sickly romantic stuff
G                                 Bm
That I wouldn't normally watch
C                                     D                   G
But you're playing on the TV in my mind

CHORUS
G                        Bm
It feels like the longest time
C                                    D
Since I held you in my arms

It feels like the longest time
Since your breath was in my lungs

It feels like the longest time
Since our bodies were as one

VERSE
I confess to liking the channel best late at night
When it plays the programmes your parents wouldn't like
I watch it in slow motion
And freeze-frame certain scenes
It's Tivo so I can do all of these things

BRIDGE
But sometimes I've had enough
And I want to turn it off
But you're stuck on the TV in my mind

CHORUS

MIDDLE
Bm                              G
You're probably not as beautiful
 D       G
In real life
Bm                  G                                    D
For sure you're gonna be much more of a bitch

BRIDGE
But the TV shows the best bits
And you come across as kind
I prefer you on the TV in my mind

CHORUS
