Traffic Light Chords

Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

GThe traffic light

Waits for you to tell me the

 tale of a shattered Emlife, tonight

And I just passed by when you have

 had the chance to Dfight

Or would you spend your last days alone

Thinkin nobody would have cared

 Or Cknown just look me in the eye and see that its a light

 So you're Dtelling Gme,

Chorus

 This is how you're going Ddown

 You thought that I never really wantedEm you around

 Well you are way off track to Gthink like that

 Coz Dnow you have taken Cback,

 everything that you ever Emsaid

 Bout how Id never want to see you Dagain

 Well Cthis is what I, what I left behind

G What I left bEmehind, what I left behind

Verse 2

GNeed a change

 In a minute of my time did I get your nEmame?

Well you say, that I haven't been

 asked that in years now I Dthink,

the traffic light that stood in the way

 So that I can hear what you had to Csay

Im half way through your story

 Cant help thinking that you're Djust like Gme

Chorus

 This is how you're going Ddown

 You thought that I never really wantedEm you around

 Well you are way off track to Gthink like that

 Coz Dnow you have taken Cback,

 everything that you ever Emsaid

 Bout how Id never want to see you Dagain

 Well Cthis is what I, what I left Ambehind

 Forgetting about ourCselves

 Is like history that Emdust is covering

 left on the shelf, Don the sChelf

 The crosswalks make the Dway for us to say what we need to say

Chorus

GYeah, this is how you're going Ddown

 You thought that I never really wantedEm you around

 Well you are way off track to Gthink like that

 Coz Dnow you have taken Cback,

 everything that you ever Emsaid

 Bout how Id never want to see you Dagain

 Well Cthis is what I, what I left bEmehind

(So your telling me)

(This is how you're going down)

 TChis is what I, what I left behind
