Lyrics

I’d (F)sit a lone and watch your light, my (Gm7)on ly friend through teen age by nights.

And (Bb)ev ’ry thing I had to know, I (Gm7)heard it on my (Bb)ra di (F)o.

You (F)gave them all, those old time stars through (Gm7)wars of worlds, in vad and by hours.

You (Bb)made ’em laugh; you made ’em cry.

You (Gm7)made us feel like (Bb)ra di (F)o.

You (Bb)we could (F)fly.

So (F)don’t be come er some back ground noise, a (Fm6)back drop for the girls we and boys who (Bb)just don’t know or just don’t care, you and (G7)just com plain when you’re not there.

You (F)had your time; you had the pow’r.

You’ve (C7sus)yet to have your fin est (C7)hour.

(Bb)Ra (F)di o.

(F)All we hear is (Bb)ra di o (F)ga ga, (Bb)ra di o (F)goo goo, (Bb)ra di o (F)ga ga.

(F)All we hear is (Bb)ra di o (F)ga ga, (Bb)ra di o (F)blah blah.

(Eb)Ra di o, what’s new?

(Dm)Ra di o

(Csus)some (C)one (Csus2)still (C)loves (F)you.

We (Dm)Some (C)one (Csus2)still (C)loves (F)you.

Does it show chords so I can play along on guitar or piano?
It does — a chord symbol sits on a thin row just above the lyric it changes on, so the same screen doubles as a lyrics-and-chords chart. Guitarists can strum the changes and pianists can comp while singing; the chords are colour-coded and move with the live transpose if you change key.
Can I change the key of "Radio Ga Ga" to match my voice or capo?
Yes. The original is in F, but the live transpose control shifts the whole song up or down semitones until the melody sits in your range (or maps to an easier guitar shape / capo position) — the on-screen chords and the backing move with it.
Can I slow "Radio Ga Ga" down to learn the words and chords?
Yes — the tempo control lets you take it as slow as you need while the lyrics still light up in time and the ball keeps you on the beat. Speed it back up once you can sing and play it through.
