E  B
I-65
      F#                       G#m
Your hand on my leg while your other hand drives
E                  B
You glance to the side
     F#                       G#m
I’d tell you to focus, you’d swerve to the right

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

Chorus:
        E                          B
‘Cause you keep your eyes on the road
                   F#                  G#m
Both hands on the wheel, you never let go
     E                         B
You don’t like to talk to me when
                    F#                   G#m
Your foot’s on the gas, say you’re focusing
   E                       B
I wish we would stop at a red
                   F#                G#m
And you’d turn to say, you love me again
     E                         B
But you keep your eyes on the road
               F#                        G#m
No matter what color the traffic lights glow

I used to hope
All the lights would be red or yellow
Now I hope for green
So I can pretend that's why you ignore me
You don’t wanna talk
When I get in, you turn the music up
But I still buckle up
I’m holding on but I think that you're done

Chorus:
’Cause you keep your eyes on the road
Both hands on the wheel, you never let go
You don't like to talk to me when your foot's
on the gas
Say you're focusing
I wish we would stop at a red, and you’d turn
to say
You love me again
But you keep your eyes on the road
No matter what color the traffic lights glow

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

Chorus:
'Cause you keep your eyes on the road
Both hands on the wheel, you never let go
You don't like to talk to me when your foot's
on the gas
Say you're focusing
I wish we would stop at a red, and you'd turn to say
You love me again
But you keep your eyes on the road
No matter what color the traffic lights glow

No matter what color the traffic lights glow
No matter what color the traffic lights glow
