Tuning:
This song has never been released by depeche mode. It was playing during the Speak &
spell tour in 1981 and opened every pefornance of it.
It is very simple and has only 3 chords - A G Em. It would be more comfortable to play
them by power chords with improvisation of punk or post-punk style.
Intro:
A G
You can Asee them rGunning thrAough me bGaby
You can Asee the liGghts in theiAr eyes G
You can Asee the GmassesA raising Gme
And I'm pAreaching thGem more lAies G
I'm just a Amass-form comGmunicAation G
I sAell what evGeryone buAys G
You know Amy apGpearance Ais chanGging
AChanging for mGodern tAimes G
Chorus:
I'm just aEm......G..television set
I'm just a........television set
I'm just a........television set
Well you can have me in bed if you want me
Just plug me into your wall
And I'll give you sex if you want it
Or I'll give you nothing at all
You can have me, babe, for good times
You can have me, babe, for bad
Keep me running all of your life and
I'll return your instant demand
Chorus:
I'm just a television set
I'm just a television set
I'm just a television set
Did you see them running through me baby
Did you see the lights in their eyes
Did you see the masses raising me
Am I preaching them more lies?
I'm just a mass form communication
I sell what everyone buys
You know my appearance is changing
Changing for modern times
Chorus:
I'm just a television set
I'm just a television set
I'm just a television set
