traffic jam Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]From the eighteenth century
[Bm]cobblestone streets
With the [Em]horse and the carriages
to [A]rest our feet
To [F#m]the train and city [Bm]tram came
the [Em]birth of mechanical [A]man
With mech[D]anical [A]man
came the [Bm]automobile
Henry [Em]Ford's Model 'T' with
an [A]engine on wheels
And a [F#m]crazy race [Bm]began with
[F#m]a car for every [A]man
A limousine, hot rod,
Beetle and a van or maybe just an old sedan

[Verse 2]
We're heading for a [D]great [G]big
[D]worldwide [G]traffic [A]jam
With only red lights, green lights,
yellow lights to be our [D]guiding [G]hand[D]
We're [G]heading for a [D]great [G]big (we're heading
for [D]a) worldwide [G]traffic [A]jam
With all the hoots and the toots and
the traffic brutes to fill our [D]loving [G]land[D]

[Verse 3]
I wonder [D]who's gonna win
this great big race
Mech[G]anical man or [Em]the natural
pace? [A](We wait for you)
From the [D]back seat Romeo in [Bm]lover's lane to
[Em]the family car on a [A]highway in Spain
There's a [F#m]car for every ne[Bm]ed with th[E]e shape,
the color and [A]speed, yeah

[Verse 4]
It's [D]the twentieth cen[Bm]tury's technical toy,
[Em]full of buttons and dials, [A]full of comfort and [G]joy
But [F#m]the number's go[Bm]ing up,
I wonder [F#m]where it's gonna [A]stop
The limousine, hot rod, Beetle and the van
It's gonna go way out of hand

[Verse 5]
We're heading for a [D]great [G]big
[D]worldwide [G]traffic [A]jam
With only red lights, green lights,
yellow lights to be our [D]guiding [G]hand[D]
We're [G]heading for a [D]great big
[G]wor[D]ldwide tra[G]ffic jam[A]
With all the hoots and the toots and the traffic
brutes to fill our [D]loving [G]land[D]

[Verse 6]
I wonder [D]who's gonna win
this great big race
[G]Mechanical man or the [Em]natural pace?
For the [E]world's getting smaller and
the time's getting shorter every [A]day
We're heading for a [D]great [G]big[D]
worldwide [G]traffic [A]jam
We're heading for a [D]great [G](gr[D]eat) big
(big) worldwide [G]traffic [A]jam oh, yeah
We're heading for a [D]great (great) big
(big) worldwide [G]traffic [A]jam
We're heading for a [D]great (great) big (big) worldwide
[G]traffic [A]jam (worldwide traffic jam)
We're heading for [D]a great (great) big
(big) worldwide traffic [A]jam
