[F]
[C]
[G]

Verse


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

[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.

Chorus


[F]Can't stop running to ya,
[G]Feel the love coming through ya,
[F]Girl with you beside me,
[G]Hold on, heaven guide me...

Can't [C]hold out (can't hold out) much [G]longer (no no baby)
