Em G C
I do my makeup in somebody else's car
Em G C
We order different drinks at the same bars
Em G C
I know about what you did and I wanna scream the truth
Em G C
She thinks you love the beach, you're such a damn liar
C
Cause we were both young when I first saw you
F
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
Am F
I'm standing there on a balcony in summer air
F C G
But I hear the sounds in my mind
F C G
Brand new sounds in my mind
F C G
But honey I'll be seein' you 'ever I go
F C G
But honey I'll be seein' you down every road
(I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it)
F G
'Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
Am C
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
F
But you were everything to me I was
G Am F G
Begging you please don't go, and I said
F C G
Oh honey I'll come get my things but I can't let go
(I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it)
F C G
Yes honey I'll come get my things but I can't let go
(I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it)
F C G
Oh I wish I could get my things and just let go
(I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it)
Em G C
Sometimes I wake up in a different bedroom
Em G C
I whisper things, the city sings them back to you
Am F C G
I got tired of waiting, wondering if you were ever coming around
Am F
My faith in you was fading
C G
When I met you on the outskirts of town and I said
I’m waitin’ for it, that green light, I want it
F C G
Oh honey I'll come get my things but I can't let go
(I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it)
F C G
Yes honey I'll come get my things but I can't let go
(I'm waiting for it, that green light, I want it)
F C G
Oh I wish I could get my things and just let go
G A D
It's a love story baby just say yes
(I’m waitin’ for it, that green light, I want it)
D A Bm
Uh oh, uh oh
(I’m waitin’ for it, that green light, I want it)
G A D
We were both young when I first saw you
