  			verse 1 
A 
Inhibitions, televisions 
                                  Aaug 
Clicking through whatever weather you know 

That your mind lets you know I know better 
    F#m                  B 
But I, I want to see you tonight 
A 
'Cause the clocks count down and we're in for bad weather 
     Aaug 
It'd be nice to see you, to see you nice 
    F#m               B 
But I want to see you tonight

'Cause you're my top, you're my top

You're my top one-hundred shows

A 
Interstellar, dressed in leather, drinking bitter boy 
Aaug 
You know the plan but you never knew the ploy 
    F#m                    B 
But I, I live a lonely life 
A 
Since you been gone I left the TV on 
  Aaug 
Let the milk go sour, let the bills pile up 
    F#m                   B 
But I, I know I'm a funny guy 


A                                 Aaug 
'Cause you're my top, you're my top

You're my top one-hundred shows

Why do I always have to go killing the

Swear I saw you smile 
D 
You try to hide it well 
B               D          E 
Three fifteen on the wrong side 


A                                 Aaug 
'Cause you're my top, you're my top 
          F#m                  B 
You're my top one-hundred shows

Kill the joke 
A            Aaug 
Kill the joke 
A            Aaug 
Kill the joke 
A            Aaug 
Kill the joke
