Capital Lights Brett Admire (Guitar) Bryson Phillips (Vox) Michael Paul Phillips(Drums) Jonathan Williams(Guitars)
There comes a time in every band’s life when abandoning commercial expectations in favor of heartfelt musical expressions and relatable lyrics takes center stage. For the Tulsa, Oklahoma-based pop/rock foursome Capital Lights, that realization came remarkably early in its already impressive career, following a name change and stylistic shift from members’ days in locally acclaimed screamo act afterEIGHT.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Verse 1: C#A I got a girl she’s the talk of the town BB I’m scared of wavering but she’s scared of settling down C#AB We’re one of a kind but there’s a catch I caught through the grapevine BC#B That she’s everything I’m not, no C#A She’s a pro and I’m a convict BB Caught red handed trying to hold on C#A I got a loose hand cant get a grip BB She’s on a power trip tripping on my weakness
Pre-chorus: AB Can’t stand still when I’m lighter then air C#B She better bid farewell there goner with the wind ABA Hmm I know a girl like that when I’m in she’s out B And when I’m out she’s in
Chorus: EB She’s a coldfront giving me a heatstroke C#AB She’s a hit song ending on a weak note AC#B I go high she goes low AB It’s a long rollercoaster ride EB She’s a saint with a smile on a Sunday C#AB Going out getting wild on a Monday EC#A Took two weeks to say hello AB Now I’m too weak to say goodbye

Chorus: EB She’s a coldfront giving me a heatstroke C#AB She’s a hit song ending on a weak note AC#B I go high she goes low AB It’s a long rollercoaster ride EB She’s a saint with a smile on a Sunday C#AB Going out getting wild on a Monday EC#A Took two weeks to say hello AB Now I’m too weak to say goodbye
Bridge: F#A I tried holding her close, she said she just needed more time F#A So I let her go, suddenly I was the bad guy F#A I think it’s all just a game, she’s playing with my mind F#AB Like a soap opera twist left me confused like
