Intro
[Dmaj9/F#] [G6] [Dmaj9/F#] [G6]
Verse 1
[Dmaj9/F#]Friday night an' I'm going nowhere,
[G6]All the lights are changing green to red.
[Dmaj9/F#]Turning over T.V. stations,
[G6]Situations running through my head
[Dmaj9/F#]Looking back through time, you know,
[G6]It's clear that I've been blind, I've been a fool
[Dmaj9/F#]To open up my heart to all that jealousy,
[G6]That bitterness, that ridicule. [Em]
Verse 2
[Dmaj9/F#]Saturday I'm running wild
[G6]An' all the lights are changin', red to green.
[Dmaj9/F#]Moving through the crowds, I'm pushin',
[G6]Chemicals are rushing in my bloodstream.
[Dmaj9/F#]Only wish that you were here,
[G6]You know I'm seein' it so clear; I've been afraid
[Dmaj9/F#]To show you how I really feel,
[G6]Admit to some of those bad mistakes I've made.
Chorus
[D]And if you want it, come an' get it, for crying out loud. [A][Em][F#m11]
[D]The love that I was givin' you was never in doubt [A][Em][G6]
[D]Let go of your heart, let go of your head, and feel it now [A][Em][A]
[D]Let go of your heart, let go of your head, and feel it now [A][Em][A]

Verse 3
[Dmaj9/F#]Sunday, all the lights in London shining,
[G6]Sky is fading red to blue.
[Dmaj9/F#]Kickin' through the autumn leaves
[G6]And wonderin' where it is you might be going to.
[Dmaj9/F#]Turnin' back for home, you know,
[G6]I'm feeling so alone, I can't believe.
[Dmaj9/F#]Climbin' on the stair I turn around
[G6]To see you smiling there in front of me.
Chorus
