Lyrics to High Art, Local News:

Intro
B  A  D    G

     B          A        D                  G
In a good girl new world, teaming with you, filled to the roof,

       B          A         D              G
To make high art, mad love, nightly news, Skip the reviews

D                               G
they don't want to be known, don't want it read,

D                                      G
It's just something that's floating in somebody's head.

D          A        Bm        F#m       G      A
So let me, princess, print this. 

D       A         Bm         F#m       G      A    F  Em A
Let me, princess, print this.

B  A  D    G
B  A  D    G

      B         A      D           G
In a postcard parkside rendez-vous, teaming with you

        B       A          D                G
To make high art based on walking the dog, walking through fog,

             F                         Bb
And please skip the reviews, because someone you've met's

F                              Bb
Become something exploding in somebody's head.

D          A         Bm        F#m       G      A
So let me, princess, print this. 

D         A          Bm        F#m       G      A    F  Em 
Let me, princess, print this.

F   Em     F   Em     
It leaves voices in people

G  D     G D
It leaves voices in people


     B         A       D              G
In a countdown downtown total eclipse, big as the Ritz,

         B          A       D                  G
You find new signs, no time, some you could use, lost in your shoes,

F                            Bb
But don't skip the reviews, we don't want it said,

F                                       Bb
'It's just something that's floating in somebody's head'.

D          A         Bm        F#m       G      A
So let me, princess, print this. 

D          A         Bm        F#m       G      A    F  Em   A    B
Let me, princess, print this..
