Traffic Light Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]The traffic light
Waits for you to tell me the tale
of a shattered [Em]life, tonight
And I just passed by when you have
had the chance to [D]fight
Or would you spend your
last days alone
Thinkin nobody would have cared
[C]or known just look me in the
eye and see that its a light
So you're telling [G]me,
this is how you're going [D]down
You thought that I never really
wanted you [Em]around
Well you are way off track to [G]think like that
Coz [D]now you have taken [C]back,
everything that you ever [Em]said
bout how Id never want
to see you [D]again
Well [C]this is what I, what I left behind
[G]What I left behind,
[Em]what I left behind
[G]Need a change
In a minute of my time did
I get your [Em]name?
Well you say,
that I haven't been asked that [D]in years
[Em]Now I think,
[D]the traffic light that stood in the way
So that I can hear what you had to say
[C]I'm half way through your story
Cant help thinking that
you're just like [G]me

[Verse 2]
[G]This is how I'm going [D]down
I thought that they never
really wanted me [Em]around
Well I was way off track to [G]think like that
Coz [D]now I'm taken [C]back,
everything that I ever [Em]said
bout how they'd never want
to see me [D]again
Well [C]this is what I, what I left behind

[Verse 3]
[Am]Forgetting about ourse[C]lves
Is like history that [Em]dust is covering left on the self,
[D]on the [C]self
The crosswalks make the [D]way for us
to say what we need [G]to say

[Verse 4]
Yeah, [G]this is how you're going [D]down
You thought I'd never really
wanted you [Em]around
Well you were way off
track to [G]think like that
Coz [D]now you have taken back,
[C]everything that you ever sai[Em]d
bout how I never want
to see you [D]again
Well [C]this is what I, what I left behind
[Em]This is how you're going down
[D]This is what I, wha[C]t I left behind

[Outro 1]
