First chords i figured out.
which is on capo 2
and the studio version is on capo 3
I Adon't wanna slow down.
AYou go for seconds and days
AI live for moments to say
That I may never Dget a second chance
Don't throw Dit away
Living for dollaArs and dimes
AThey'll all diminish in time
Oh let that motioDn come crashing
DLike a plane from the sky
It waAs a long ride down the east coast
DIn a city can't keep
Could you keep up on your feet?
AAnd I was struck down by the west coast
It was a quarDter to three but I don't do sleep
F#mFollow the freeway
EBreaDk the routine
ACuz eveDrything is second to your dreams
F#mIf this is the green light
ETake wDhat you need
F#mAnd breaDk out of this hospital scene
F#mI'm running through a stop sign
CuttEing out the break lights
AI don't wEant to slow slow slow slow down down
F#mI'm running through a stop sign
ELiving so it feels right
AI don't Ewant to slow slow slow slow down down
DDon'At wanna slow it down
AThought I'd give impatience a try
AGot a little enveloped in time
CuDz I watch you come and watch it go
And it don't seem right
ALiving for speed limit signs
Ignore and cross every line
GoDtta let emotion take you over 20 miles at a time
F#mFollow the freeway
EBreaDk the routine
ACuz eveDrything is second to your dreams
F#mIf this is the green light
ETake wAhat you need
F#mAnd breaDk out of this hospital scene
F#mI'm running through a stop sign

I don't wanna slow down.

You go for seconds and days

I live for moments to say
