Matt Fishel - Radio-Friendly Pop Song Chords

D

        D
It's a pleasure to meet you my friend 
                        G
Come take a seat at my desk 
D
I gotta tell you kid 
                                G
The whole team is more than impressed 
      D                                      G
Your melodies soar and all of your choruses shine 
     D                                                G
The lyrics are sound and your voice is fundamentally fine 
Bm                        A
But face it if you wanna make it on the radio kid 
G                  Bm
You gotta do as I say 
                G
Change all the hims into hers 
     A
And just don't tell the world that you're shh 

D                                                          G
Happy to help, take my card, please think about what I've said 
                D       
But this is an industry where people make money 
                    G
So your art has to sell
               Bm                             A
And you should never seek to challenge to an audience 
                       G                        D
They buy what they're told and we never get it wrong 
          Bm               D                      A
Go write us a nonoffensive tasteful conventional song 
Like this one 

D                   
Girls like boys 
     G                   
And boys like girls 
     Bm        D              A  
And that's the way it should be 
G
Forever 

D                                               G
Welcome to Tinseltown kid I'm gonna make you a star 
             D                                                   G
You got the fire in your gut and everything that you need to go far 
          D                                             G
You're a talented guy, you can shake Hollywood to the ground 
         D                                                          G
And with us on your side plus your looks you're gonna conquer this town 
    Bm                    A                        G                    D
But face it if you wanna break into this business kid you gotta play the part 
           Bm                   G                         Em
And you'll never play a leading man if you let onto your fans 
     C                    D
The truth about who you are 

                                
Just remember that 
D                   
Girls like boys 
     G                   
And boys like girls 
     Bm         D          A  
And that's the way it has been
G
Forever 
D                   
Girls like boys 
     G                   
And boys like girls 
     Bm         D          A  
And that's the way it will be 
G
Forever 

        Dm             C

       Dm                Bb      C

Bb      C          Dm           
          He said think about the children

Are you never gonna get it? 
                  C   A

        D                                                 G
