Intro:  Alternate  Ab  and B chords

Ab / / / B  Ab / / B

        C#
Selling exes down the river
      Ebm             B
every Katie's got her price
        C#       
and the details make you shiver
         Ebm            B                          C#
but it's hard to escape when your head is stuck in vice
                               Ebm            B
because nothing matters in the self obsessive age
           C#                     
where they dare you not to notice
         Ebm          B                F#     Ab
but it's everywhere in shocking colour on the page

CHORUS

B      E   Ab
In the magazine
B       E      Ab
staring out at me
B      E   C#
out of my TV
E     A        C#
other people's lives
E   A     C#
pixelated lives
E         A         F#
just like yours and mine

      C#    
Every weekend i bear witness
       Ebm       B
to the social suicides
       C#            
to the thief who stays for breakfast
       Ebm          B                    C#
to the poster child screwing everybody's wife

Yeah it's just a story
       Ebm              B
but it keeps me hanging on
        C#
for the needy soul,
                  Ebm
the glory hole confessional
    B               F#     Ab
I got to see what's going down

B      E   Ab
In the magazine
B       E     Ab
staring out at me
B      E   C#
out of my TV
E     A        C#
other people's lives
E   A     C#
pixelated lives
E         A         F#
just like yours and mine
