🎸 Intro:

C majorC  G+G  D MajorD  E minorEm


🎸 Verse 1:
C majorC G+G
I-65
   D MajorD             E minorEm
Your hand on my leg while your other hand drives
C majorC          G+G
You glance to the side
   D MajorD             E minorEm
I’d tell you to focus, you’d swerve to the right

C majorC        G+G
That’s how it used to be
    D MajorD            E minorEm
You’d look at me before you’d turn the key
   C majorC      G+G
But now I can’t help but think
   D MajorD           E minorEm
That maybe you fell out of love with me

🎸 Chorus:
    C majorC             G+G
‘Cause you keep your eyes on the road
          D MajorD         E minorEm
Both hands on the wheel, you never let go
   C majorC            G+G
You don’t like to talk to me when
          D MajorD          E minorEm
Your foot’s on the gas, say you’re focusing

  C majorC           G+G
I wish we would stop at a red
          D MajorD         E minorEm
And you’d turn to say, you love me again
   C majorC             G+G
But you keep your eyes on the road
        D MajorD             E minorEm
No matter what color the traffic lights glow

🎸 Verse 2:
C majorC      G+G
 I used to hope
     D MajorD           E minorEm
All the lights would be red or yellow
C majorC         G+G
 Now I hope for green
  D MajorD           E minorEm   D MajorD   C majorC
So I can pretend that’s why you ignore me

     G+G
You don’t wanna talk
   D MajorD           E minorEm
When I get in, you turn the music up
  C majorC    G+G
But I still buckle up
   D MajorD           E minorEm
I’m holding on but I think that you’re done

🎸 Chorus:
    C majorC             G+G
‘Cause you keep your eyes on the road
          D MajorD         E minorEm
Both hands on the wheel, you never let go
   C majorC            G+G
You don’t like to talk to me when
          D MajorD          E minorEm
Your foot’s on the gas, say you’re focusing

  C majorC           G+G
I wish we would stop at a red
          D MajorD         E minorEm
And you’d turn to say, you love me again
   C majorC             G+G
But you keep your eyes on the road
        D MajorD             E minorEm
No matter what color the traffic lights glow

🎸 Bridge:
C majorC            G+G
Every time that you pull up in the drive
  D MajorD             E minorEm
I get in your car and think “Is this the last time?”
   C majorC            G+G
I’m holding my breath in the passenger’s side
   D MajorD          E minorEm
Your safe driving has me scared for my life

🎸 Chorus:
    C majorC             G+G
‘Cause you keep your eyes on the road
          D MajorD         E minorEm
Both hands on the wheel, you never let go
   C majorC            G+G
You don’t like to talk to me when
          D MajorD          E minorEm
Your foot’s on the gas, say you’re focusing

  C majorC           G+G
I wish we would stop at a red
          D MajorD         E minorEm
And you’d turn to say, you love me again
   C majorC             G+G
But you keep your eyes on the road
        D MajorD             E minorEm
No matter what color the traffic lights glow
C majorC      G+G       D MajorD           E minorEm
  No matter  what color  the traffic lights glow
C majorC      G+G       D MajorD           E minorEm
  No matter  what color  the traffic lights glow
