Verse 1
F
The traffic light
Waits for you to tell me the
                    Dm
tale of a shattered life, tonight
And I just passed by when you have
                  G
had the chance to fight
Or would you spend your last days alone Thinkin nobody would have cared
   F
Or known just look me in the eye and see that its a light
D G (leads into chorus) So you're telling me, Chorus
                         G
This is how you're going down

                                      Dm
You thought that I never really wanted you around

                              F
Well you are way off track to think like that

    G                  F
Coz now you have taken back, 

                         Dm
everything that you ever said

                                  G
Bout how Id never want to see you again

     F
Well this is what I, what I left behind

    What I left behind, what I left behind
Verse 2
F
Need a change

                                       Dm
In a minute of my time did I get your name?
Well you say, that I haven't been
                          G
asked that in years now I think, 
the traffic light that stood in the way
                                   F
So that I can hear what you had to say
Im half way through your story
                               G         F
Cant help thinking that you're just like me
Chorus
                         G

Forgetting about ourselves

                     Dm
Is like history that dust is covering 

                   G       F
left on the shelf, on the shelf
D (single strum) The crosswalks make the way for us to say what we need to say Chorus
F                              G
