Lyrics to High Art, Local News:

Intro
B5  A5  D5    G5

     B5          A5        D5                  G5
In a good girl new world, teaming with you, filled to the roof,

       B5          A5         D5              G5
To make high art, mad love, nightly news, Skip the reviews

D5                               G5
they don't want to be known, don't want it read,

D5                                      G5
It's just something that's floating in somebody's head.

D5          A5        B5        F#5       G5      A5
So let me, princess, print this. 

D5       A5         B5         F#5       G5      A5    F5  E5 A5
Let me, princess, print this.

B5  A5  D5    G5
B5  A5  D5    G5

      B5         A5      D5           G5
In a postcard parkside rendez-vous, teaming with you

        B5       A5          D5                G5
To make high art based on walking the dog, walking through fog,

             F5                         Bb5
And please skip the reviews, because someone you've met's

F5                              Bb5
Become something exploding in somebody's head.

D5          A5         B5        F#5       G5      A5
So let me, princess, print this. 

D5         A5          B5        F#5       G5      A5    F5  E5 
Let me, princess, print this.

F5   E5     F5   E5     
It leaves voices in people

G5  D5     G5 D5
It leaves voices in people


     B5         A5       D5              G5
In a countdown downtown total eclipse, big as the Ritz,

         B5          A5       D5                  G5
You find new signs, no time, some you could use, lost in your shoes,

F5                            Bb5
But don't skip the reviews, we don't want it said,

F5                                       Bb5
'It's just something that's floating in somebody's head'.

D5          A5         B5        F#5       G5      A5
So let me, princess, print this. 

D5          A5         B5        F#5       G5      A5    F5  E5   A5    B5
Let me, princess, print this..
