Red Lights Teclado

	  
verse 1   

    G 
In all good faith and sentiment 

I can’t believe somehow 
        Em7 
That I haven’t died of grief or something 

Since you left this town 
         Cadd9             G 
I’m all undecorated, cigarettes, 
                    D              Dsus4 D Dsus4 
And standard white apartment walls 


verse 2 

    G 
And 3 am and 4 am 

It's impossible to sleep 
        Em7 
I’d do anything to hold you 

To feel you next to me 
             Cadd9 
But I’m all sore eyes and beasts 
       G                            D   Dsus4 D Dsus4 
At my backdoor, pulling out their claws 


    Em7             Cadd9 
So yes I will take those 
     G             D 
Whatever else they give me 
Em7              Cadd9 
If it stops the nightmares 
     G             D 
It probably won’t kill me 
    Em7           Cadd9           G                       D 
And if I slow it down I’ll end up on one of my accuser’s knives 
     Cadd9                         D 
So I only stop to tell her that I love her at the red lights 


Post-Chorus 

Em7 Cadd9 G   

D           
At the red lights 


Break 

Em7 Cadd9 G D 


verse 3 

     G 
And all in all I’m wrecked you see 

From years of piping down 
     Em7 
And piping up about the things 

That never mattered anyhow 
          Cadd9 
When you change too much you lose yourself 
     G                                D    Dsus4 D Dsus4 
And sometimes you just can’t get them back 


verse 4 

         G 
And you might be an angel or a devil, I don’t know 
    Em7 
But if in fact you are now, love 

Well, I’ve been there before 
      Cadd9                           G 
I’ve fallen on my face and I’ve been burned so near to death  
                 D            Dsus4    D Dsus4 
I probably wont live through it.........anyhow 


    Em7             Cadd9 
So yes I will take those 
     G             D 
Whatever else they give me 
Em7              Cadd9 
If it stops the nightmares 
     G             D 
It probably won’t kill me 
    Em7           Cadd9           G                       D 
And if I slow it down I’ll end up on one of my accuser’s knives 
     Cadd9                         D 
So I only stop to tell her that I love her at the red lights 


Post-Chorus 

Em7 Cadd9 G    

D          
At the red lights

Em7 Cadd9 G

So I only stop and I tell her that I love her at the red lights.
