Song Help Request Video Killed the Radio Star tab

Hey everyone!

I just saw a great ukulele cover of this song here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0ee-bxjL_c

but sadly the ukulele player doesn't publicize his own tabs.

Could anyone post the tabs to this song or to another version of it?

Thanks!

Thanks, but to clarify this: It is not that I just don't publicize my tabs, I really do not have any tabs I could publicize.

Bump, if any one knows please post!

Oooo! I don't know how to play it, but it's a good song! The very first song on MTV (back when they actually played music!!!!), and the two guys in The Buggles had actually played with Yes on one album ("Drama")!

Try This one.It's not perfect but you could build from it?

Video Killed The Radio Star

G Am C D
I heard you on my wireless back in fifty two
G Am C D
Lying awake intent on tuning in on you
G Em D
If I was young it didn't stop you coming through
G C D
oh-a-oh

G Am C D
They took the credit for your second symphony
G Am C D
Rewritten by machine on new technology
G Em D
And now I understand the supernova scene
G C D
oh-a-oh
I met the children
G C D
oh-a-oh
What can you sell them?

G C
Video killed the radio star
G C
Video killed the radio star

G D Em C
In my mind and in my car,
G D Em C
we can't rewind we've gone too far

D Em
Oh - aoh – oh - oh – oh
D Em
Oh – aoh – oh - oh - oh

G Am C D
And now we meet in an abandoned studio
G Am C D
You hear the playback and it seems so long ago
G Em D
And you remember,the jingles used to go,

G C D
oh-a-oh
You were the first one
G C D
oh-a-oh
You were the last one

G C
Video killed the radio star
G C
Video killed the radio star
G D Em C
In my mind and in my car,
G D Em C
we can't rewind we've gone too far
D Em
Oh - aoh – oh - oh – oh
D Em
Oh – aoh – oh - oh - oh

G C
Video killed the radio star
G C
Video killed the radio star
G D Em C
In my mind and in my car,
G D Em C
we can't rewind we've gone too far

G D Em C
Pictures came,broke your heart
G D C
So put all the blame on VCR

EDIT: I see that the chords have been shifted on the website,from the true locations!
But I am sure you will work out where they should fit over the words!

It takes a lot of time and effort to put together a tab or tutorial video. I'm sure that if WS64 tabbed out everything people asked him to, he'd never have any time to play the uke.

aloha

my first instrument was the piano, so I know the chords

D G A
I heard you on the wireless back in fifty two

this carries on for the song until

D G
Video killed the radio star

then...

D A/C# G/B
In my mind and in my car

then...
D G A D G A
You are a radio star

if this is too hard for the uke, swap D for C, G for F and A for G.

Way cool. I need to learn this one. Thanks. What a great site this is

please WS64 when you get the time please post up tabs for this thanks you. i tried the chords but i would enjoy the tabs much more.
