[Verse 1]
I [Am]looked in the mirror [F]then[Faug]
[Dm]Saw my face [F]in a dream.
With [Em]eyes sharp as diamonds
[C]Blessed with clear vision
Things [G]were not as they [F]seemed
Black and White Television
Stared [Em]back from the [D]wall.
Is that [Am]my life?
Am [F]I here a[Am]t all?
Down in the High Road, [Dm]see[F]
Motor cavalcades glide
Pas[Em]t shopwindow dressers
[C]Desperately covering
All the [G]parts they can [F]hide.
Black and White Television
Stares [Em]at me a[D]gain.
Is that [Am]their lives?
Even [F]dummies[G][F][G][F][Am]
[A]pre[Am]tend.[F]
The truth is so hard to deny.
The [Dm]answer is here
The screen never [C]lies.[Cm][F]
[Dm]Black [C]and [Bb]Whit[G]e
[D]Tel[Dm]evisi[C]on.
[Bb]It's the right [G]television.
Show me it's all [F]a dream to
[Am]night.[Esus4][Am][F][Am]
The boys on the corner [F]sulk
In their [Dm]Su zu[F]ki haze.
In [E]primary [Em]colours
[C](each year more startling)
But [G]they still fade to [F]grey
On Black and White Television.
It's [Em]sweeping the [D]land.
Is that [Am]your life?
[G]Do you [F]und[Dm]erst[Bb]and?[Gm][F]
[Dm]Black and White [C]Television
[Bb]Back the right television
[G]Bla[Dm]ck and White Tel[C]evision
[Bb]Hard to fight television
[G]Show me it's all a d[F]ream
Tonight
[Am][Dm]
