     E           F#              G#m          B
She's another victim of life we've come to know
     E         F#
Technology, celebrity
         G#m                 B
All the things you cannot hold
              E                       F#
She's from a long lost tribe looking for the light
      G#m                  B
or a friend to hold her hand
       E         F#      G#m
She's doing the best she can

           E             B
Seems that everyone we know's
           E             B
Out there waiting by a phone
            E             B             F#
Wondering why they feel alone, in this life

Chorus:
E      F#           G#m
Are we all just satellites?
             B               E
Where's the love, show me tonight
           F#         G#m
Here's the moment we unite
      B         E
Oh-wa-oh, oh-wa-oh-oh
E       F#                  G#m
All we know, life's just a dream
         B                   E
Who the hell knows what it means?
         F#                  G#m
Stop the world and sing with me
                C#m
oh-wa-oh, oh-wa-oh-oh

All her memories have been
Experienced through
High speed on a video screen
That's all she ever knew
Did you know none of it's real if you can't feel
The beating of someone's heart
Don't leave yourself in the dark

Seems that everyone we know is
Out there waiting by a phone
Wondering why they feel alone
In this life

Chorus

Are we satellites?
Are we satellites?
