INTRO: [E/Ab] [A] :
[x4]
VERSE 1:
[E/Ab] Friday night I'm going nowhere,
[A] all the lights are changing,
[E/Ab] green to red
[A]
[E/Ab] Turning over TV stations,
[A] situations running through
[E/Ab] my head
[A]
[E/Ab] Looking back through time, you know it's
[A] clear that I've been blind, I've been a
[E/Ab] fool
[A]
To
[E/Ab] open up my heart to all that
[A] jealousy, that bitterness, that
[E/Ab] ridicule
[A]
BREAK: [Gbm open]
VERSE 2:
[E/Ab] Saturday I'm running wild and
[A] all the lights are changing,
[E/Ab] red to green
[A]
[E/Ab] Moving through the crowds I'm pushing
[A] chemicals all rushing in my
[E/Ab] bloodstream
[A]
Only
[E/Ab] wish that you were here, you know I'm
[A] seeing it so clear, I've been a-
[E/Ab]-fraid
[A]
To
[E/Ab] show you how I really feel, ad-
[A]-mit to some of those bad mis-
[E/Ab]-takes I've made
[A]
PRE-CHORUS:
[E] If you want
[B] it, come and get
[Gbm] it, crying out
[Abm] loud
[E] The love that I
[B] was, giving you
[Gbm] was, never in
[A] doubt
CHORUS:
[E] Let go your
[B] heart, let go your
[Gbm] head, and feel it
[B] now
[E] Let go your
[B] heart, let go your
[Gbm] head, and feel it
[B] now
[B]
POST-CHORUS:
Baby-
[E/Ab]-lon
[A], Baby-
[E/Ab]-lon
[A], Baby-
[E/Ab]-lon
[A],
[E/Ab] [A]
VERSE 3:
[E/Ab] Sunday all the lights of London,
[A] shining sky is fading,
[E/Ab] red to blue
[A]
[E/Ab] I'm kicking through the Autumn leaves and
[A] wondering where it is you might be
[E/Ab] going to
[A]
[E/Ab] Turning back for home, you know I'm
[A] feeling so alone, I can't be-
[E/Ab]-lieve
[A]
[E/Ab] Climbing on the stair, I turn a-
[A]-round to see you smiling there in-
[E/Ab]-front of me
[A]
