Am
F
C
G

Chorus

Am                F
Red Light, Spells danger,
      C              G
Can't hold out, much longer
       Am              F
'Cause red light means warning,
      C             G
Can't hold out, I'm burning (No, no, no...)

Verse

Am
  You took my heart and turned me on
F
  And now the danger sign is on
C
  I never thought the day would come
G
  When I would feel alone without you
Am
  And now I'm like a child again,
F
  Calling out his mama's name,
C
  You got me on a ball and chain,
G
  Doin' things that I don't want to.

Can't stop running to ya,

Feel the love coming through ya,

Girl with you beside me,

Hold on, heaven guide me...
