Intro: E   B   Gb   Abm

Verse 1:
E  B
I-65
      Gb                         Abm
Your hand on my leg while your other hand drives
E                   B
You glance to the side
     Gb                         Abm
I’d tell you to focus, you’d swerve to the right


E               B
That’s how it used to be
       Gb                       Abm
You’d look at me before you’d turn the key
     E           B
But now I can’t help but think
      Gb                     Abm
That maybe you fell out of love with me

Chorus:
        E                          B
‘Cause you keep your eyes on the road
                    Gb                  Abm
Both hands on the wheel, you never let go
      E                       B
You don’t like to talk to me when
                    Gb                   Abm
Your foot’s on the gas, say you’re focusing


    E                      B
I wish we would stop at a red
                   Gb                 Abm
And you’d turn to say, you love me again
     E                          B
But you keep your eyes on the road
               Gb                         Abm
No matter what color the traffic lights glow

Verse 2:
E            B
  I used to hope
          Gb                     Abm
All the lights would be red or yellow
E                  B
  Now I hope for green
   Gb                     Abm      Gb      E
So I can pretend that’s why you ignore me


          B
You don’t wanna talk
     Gb                      Abm
When I get in, you turn the music up
    E        B
But I still buckle up
      Gb                     Abm
I’m holding on but I think that you’re done

Chorus:
        E                          B
‘Cause you keep your eyes on the road
                    Gb                  Abm
Both hands on the wheel, you never let go
      E                       B
You don’t like to talk to me when
                    Gb                   Abm
Your foot’s on the gas, say you’re focusing


    E                      B
I wish we would stop at a red
                   Gb                 Abm
And you’d turn to say, you love me again
     E                          B
But you keep your eyes on the road
               Gb                         Abm
No matter what color the traffic lights glow

Bridge:
E                        B
Every time that you pull up in the drive
   Gb                         Abm
I get in your car and think “Is this the last time?”
     E                        B
I’m holding my breath in the passenger’s side
      Gb                   Abm
Your safe driving has me scared for my life

Chorus:
        E                          B
‘Cause you keep your eyes on the road
                    Gb                  Abm
Both hands on the wheel, you never let go
      E                       B
You don’t like to talk to me when
                    Gb                   Abm
Your foot’s on the gas, say you’re focusing


    E                      B
I wish we would stop at a red
                   Gb                 Abm
And you’d turn to say, you love me again
     E                          B
But you keep your eyes on the road
               Gb                         Abm
No matter what color the traffic lights glow
E            B             Gb                     Abm
   No matter    what color   the traffic lights glow
E            B             Gb                     Abm
   No matter    what color   the traffic lights glow
