B
Everybody's been a long time talking
Ain't nobody said a word that's true
A
Ain't it time to stop this crap type talking
E
Won't you tell us what you're gonna do

B
Tell you what why don't we break this pattern
Tell you what why don't we do some do
A
All together we can make it happen
E
Untogether and we won't get through

Chorus:
          B          F#
I wanna drive, yeah drive
          B               E
I wanna drive, but I can get no-where
        B   F#               B  F#
Heavy traffic all over this town
          B           F#
I wanna drive, yeah drive
          B            E
I wanna drive I gotta get somewhere
        B   F#                B
Heavy traffic is bringing me down

Every time I see the red light burning
Don't it always make the air turn blue
But until we see the red light turning
There ain't nothing anyone can do

We all dream about an open highway
Making dreams is all that we can do
We'd be moving on if I had my way
Nothing can stop me getting back to you
Wanna drive yeh drive

Chorus:
I wanna drive but I can't get no-where
Heavy traffic all over this town
I wanna drive yeh drive
I wanna drive I gotta get somewhere
Heavy traffic coming into this town

I wanna drive yeh drive
I wanna drive but I can't get no-where
Heavy traffic all over this town
I wanna drive yeh drive
I wanna drive I gotta get somewhere
Heavy traffic is bringing me down
Heavy traffic all over this town

Heavy traffic all over this town

Heavy traffic coming into this town
