Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][F][C][Am][F][C][G][Em]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Here I am again
talking [F]to myself sitting at a [C]red light
[Am]Both hands on the wheel, how am I sup[F]posed to feel,
so much running [C]through [Bsus4]my mind
[Am]First you want to be free, [F]now you say you need me,
[C]giving mixed signals [Bsus4]and signs
It's so [F]hard to let you in,

[Verse 2]
thinking you might slam the breaks again
[Am]Put the pedal down, heading [F]outta town,
gotta make a [C]getaway[G]
[Am]The traffic in my brain's driving [F]me insane,
this is more than [C]I can t[G]ake[F]
You tell me that you [Am]love me [F]first
Then throw your heart in[C]to [F]reverse

[Verse 3]
I've gotta get away
[Am]I can't [A]keep coming back to [F]you
every time you're in the mood
[C]To whisper something sweet in my ear
[Am]It's so hard to move on,
[F]'cause every time I think you're [C]gone
You show up in my [Bsus4]rear view mirr[C]or

[Verse 4]
[Am]Is this just a detour, '[F]cause I gotta be sure th[C]at
you really mean what [Bm]you say[Bsus4]
It's [Bm]so ha[F]rd to let you in,
thinking you might slam the breaks [C]again

[Verse 5]
[Am]Put the pedal down, heading [F]outta town,
gotta make a [C]getaway[G]
[Am]The traffic in my brain's driving [F]me insane,
this is more than [C]I can t[G]ake[F]
You tell me that you [Am]love me [F]first
Then throw your heart in[C]to [F]reverse
I've gotta get away

[Verse 6]
To a [G]place where I can be
redefined
Where you're [F]out of sight,
and you're out of mind
But [G]the truth is I can't
even say goodbye
[F]

[Verse 7]
[Am]Here I am again talking [F]to
myself sitting at [C]a red light
[Am]Both hands on the wheel, how am I sup[F]posed to feel,
[C]so much [F]running [C]through [G]my mind

[Verse 8]
[Am]Put the pedal down, heading [F]outta town,
gotta make a [C]get[G]away
[Am]The traffic in my brain's driving [F]me insane,
this is more than [C]I can t[G]ake[F]
You tell me that you [Am]love me [F]first
Then throw your heart in[C]to reverse
[F]I've gotta get away
