6/8 (riff x4)
(riff)
satellite in my eyes
like a diamond in the sky
how I wonder
(riff)
satellite strung from the moon
and the world your balloon
4/4
peeping tom for the mother station
(chorus)
Ab Db Bbmin Eb
winter's cold, spring erases
Ab Db Bbmin Eb
and the calm away by the storm is
Ab Db Bbmin Eb
chasen everything good needs replacing.
Ab D Bbmin Eb 6/8 (riff)
look up, look down, all around, hey satellite
(riff)
satellite headlines read
someone's secrets you've seen
eyes and ears have been
(riff)
satellite dish in my yard
tell me more tell me more
4/4
who's the king of your satellite castle
(chorus) (riff abridged i.e. 3/8 for last repeat)
4/4 (bridge lead in)
(bridge)
Ab Cmin Db Eb
rest high above the clouds no restriction
Ab Cmin Db Eb
television we bounce 'round the world and while
Ab Cmin Db Eb
I spend these hours five senses reeling
Ab Cmin 2/4 Db 6/8 (riff)
I laugh about this weatherman's satellite eyes
(verse 1)
(chorus)
