Verse1: /
        Friday night an' I'm going nowhere,
                                   /      
        All the lights are changing green to red.
        /
        Turning over T.V. stations,
                                     /   
        Situations running through my   head
        /                  
        Looking back through time, you know,
                                             /       
        It's clear that I've been blind, I've been a fool
           /                
        To open up my heart to all that jealousy,
                         /            
        That bitterness, that ridicule.


Verse2: /
        Saturday I'm running wild
                                        /      
        An' all the lights are changin', red to green.
        /        
        Moving through the crowds, I'm pushin',
                               /        
        Chemicals are rushing in my bloodstream.
             /
        Only wish that you were here,
                                                   /   
        You know I'm seein' it so clear; I've been afraid
           /     
        To show you how I really feel,
                                     /         
        Admit to some of those bad mistakes I've made.



Chorus1:                                                     F#m11
          And if you want it, come an' get it, for crying out loud.
                                                     
          The love that I was  givin' you was  never in  doubt
                                                            
          Let go of your heart, let go of your head, and feel it  now
                                                            
          Let go of your heart, let go of your head, and feel it  now

Verse3:  /                        
         Sunday, all the lights in London shining,
                       /      
         Sky is fading red to blue.
         /
          Kickin' through the autumn leaves
                                              /     
         And wonderin' where it is you might be  going to.
         /        
         Turnin' back for home, you know,
                                         /   
         I'm feeling so alone, I can't believe.
         /
         Climbin' on thestair I turn around
                                     /     
         To see you smiling there in  frontof me.


Chorus2:                                                     F#m11
          And if you want it, come an' get it, for crying out loud.
                                                     
          The love that I was  givin' you was  never in  doubt
                                                            
          Let go of your heart, let go of your head, and feel it  now
                                                            
          Let go of your heart, let go of your head, and feel it  now

          Let go of your heart, let go of your head, and feel it  now
