| It's raining in my coffee cup |
| D | |
| Comin down since I got up t | oday |
| A | |
| Cold and g | ray |
| A | |
| And lookin in my rear view mirror |
| D | |
| I could be anywhere but here I | am |
| A | |
| Traffic | jam |
| E | |
| All these people without names |
| D | |
| Every day we face the same rou | tine |
| A | |
| Waiting for the light to turn | green |
| A | |
| The lady in the blue sedan |
| A | D | |
| Combs her hair and steals a glance at | me |
| A | |
| Who is | she |
| A | |
| Does anybody hold her tight |
| A | D | A | |
| Or does she spend her days and nights at | home all a | lone |
| E | |
| And over in the passing zone |
| E | D | |
| All wrapped up inside their own dayd | reams |
| A | |
| They're waiting for the light to turn | green |
| E | |
| Do they wonder who I am |
| D | |
| Do they know I'm not some dam | machine |
| A | |
| Waiting for the light to turn g | reen |
| SOLO |
| A | |
| What about the love I long for |
| D | |
| What about the child I want somed | ay |
| A | |
| Where are t | hey |
| A | |
| What about my hearts desire |
| A | D | |
| What about these four bald tires I'm | on |
| A | |
| How l | ong |
| E | |
| I've been going nowhere fast |
| D | |
| Running out of time and gasol | ine |
| A | |
| Waiting for the light to turn g | reen |
| E | |
| I'll be damned if I'll grow old |
| D | |
| Waiting for the wheels to roll not | me |
| A | |
| Waiting for the light to turn g | reen |
| A | |
| It's raining in my coffee cup |
