Red Lights chords by Brian Fallon

Difficulty: 0



verse 1

    G
In all good faith and sentiment

I can't believe somehow
        Em7
That I haven?t died of grief or something

Since you left this town
         Cadd9             G
I'm all undecorated, cigarettes,
                    D              Dsus4 D Dsus4
And standard white apartment walls

verse 2

    G
And 3 am and 4 am

It's impossible to sleep
        Em7
I'd do anything to hold you

To feel you next to me
             Cadd9
But I'm all sore eyes and beasts
       G                            D   Dsus4 D Dsus4
At my backdoor, pulling out their claws


    Em7             Cadd9
So yes I will take those
     G             D
Whatever else they give me
Em7              Cadd9
If it stops the nightmares
     G             D
It probably won't kill me
    Em7           Cadd9           G                       D
And if I slow it down I'll end up on one of my accuser?s knives
     Cadd9                         D
So I only stop to tell her that I love her at the red lights


Post-Chorus

Em7 Cadd9 G

D
At the red lights


Break

Em7 Cadd9 G D


verse 3

     G
And all in all I'm wrecked you see

From years of piping down
     Em7
And piping up about the things

That never mattered anyhow
          Cadd9
When you change too much you lose yourself
     G                                D    Dsus4 D Dsus4
And sometimes you just can't get them back


verse 4

         G
And you might be an angel or a devil, I don't know
    Em7
But if in fact you are now, love

Well, I've been there before
      Cadd9                           G
I've fallen on my face and I've been burned so near to death
                 D            Dsus4    D Dsus4
I probably wont live through it.........anyhow


    Em7             Cadd9
So yes I will take those
     G             D
Whatever else they give me
Em7              Cadd9
If it stops the nightmares
     G             D
It probably won't kill me
    Em7           Cadd9           G                       D
And if I slow it down I'll end up on one of my accuser?s knives
     Cadd9                         D
So I only stop to tell her that I love her at the red lights


Post-Chorus

Em7 Cadd9 G

D
At the red lights

    Em7             Cadd9
So yes I will take those
     G             D
Whatever else they give me
Em7              Cadd9
If it stops the nightmares
     G             D
It probably won't kill me

So yes I will take those
    Em7            Cadd9
Whatever else they give me
G                G/F#
If it stops the nightmares
    Em7            Cadd9
It probably won't kill me
     G            G/F#         Em7         Cadd9
And if I slow it down I'll end up on your knife
      G               G/F#            Em7     Cadd9             G
So I only stop and I tell her that I love her at the red lights.
