Traffic Lights chords by Sara Kays

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

🎸 Intro:

C  G  D  Em



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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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