GREEN LIGHT

GREEN LIGHT 
by HANK THOMPSON
 
G                       C      G     
I TURNED YOUR HOLE CARD UPSIDE DOWN
                         A7      D7       
I CAUGHT YOU CHEATIN AND RUNNING AROUND
 
THERE'S A SMILE UPON YOUR FACE
         G              E      
WHILE AN OTHER TAKES MY PLACE
           Am   D7                 G      
AND NOW AT LAST DEAR THE TRUTH I'VE FOUND
 
                           C           G  
BABE THERE'S A GREEN LIGHT YOUR FREE TO GO
                       A7            D7
YOU TAKE THE HIGH ROAD I'LL TAKE THE LOW
 
HERE'S YOUR COAT AND SHOES 
          G           E
AND DON'T FORGET YOUR BLUES
        Am     D7                 G    
YOUR OWN CANOE NOW YOU'LL HAVE TO ROW
 
                              C          G
BABE THERE'S A GREEN LIGHT SO SHIFT YOUR GEARS
                         A7        D7   
I KNOW YOU FOOLED ME FOR ALL THESE YEARS
 
ILL HOLD MY HEAD UP HIGH 
         G                E
AND I'LL FORGET YOU BY AND BY
              Am       D7          G   
AND THERE'LL BE LAUGHTER INSTEAD OF TEARS
 
                           C            G 
BABE THERE'S A GREEN LIGHT KICK UP YOUR HEELS
                           A7          D7 
THERE'LL COME A DAY YOU'LL KNOW HOW IT FEELS
 
TO HAVE YOUR ACES TRUMPED
       G           E
AND BE TAKEN FOR A CHUMP
              Am    D7                 G
NOW THERE'S A GREEN LIGHT SO SPIN YOUR WHEELS
