Hey yall! This is my first time doin this so here yall go! Have fun wit hit!
INTRO: C#, A#, C#, A#, F#, G#
A# C#
So here I sit looking at the traffic lights
F#
The red extinguishes the hope that the green ignites
C#
I want to run away I want to ditch my life
G# A#
Cause all of my mistakes keep me awake at night
C#
And after all of my alibis desert me
I just want to get by
F#
I don't want nothing to hurt me
I had no idea where my head was at
C# G#
But if my heart says I'm sorry can we leave it at that
A# G# C#
Because I just want for all of this to end
F# C#
And I so hate consequences
A# G#
And running from you is what my best defense is
F# C#
Ohh....... Consequences
A# G#
Oh God, don't make me face up to this
F# C#
And I so hate consequences
A# G#
And running from you is what my best defense is
F#
Cause I know that I let you down
G#
And I don't want to deal with that
Intro repeated*
A#
It just now hit me this is more than just a set back
C#
And when you spelled it out, well, I guess I didn't get that
F#
And every trace of momentum is gone
C# G# A#
And this isn't turning out the way I want
And after all of my alibis desert me
C#
I just want to get by
I don't want nothing to hurt me
F#
I had no idea where my head was at
C# G#
But if my heart says I'm sorry can we leave it at that
A# G# C#
Because I just want for all of this to end
F# C#
And I so hate consequences
A# G#
And running from you is what my best defense is
F# C#
Ohh....... Consequences
A# G#
Oh God, don't make me face up to this
F# C#
And I so hate consequences
A# G#
And running from you is what my best defense is
F#
Cause I know that I let you down
G#
And I don't want to deal with that
A#
And I spent all last night
F#
Tearing down
Every stoplight
C#
And stop sign in this town
Now I think there might
G#
Be no way to stop me now
I'll get away despite
F#
The fact I'm so weighed down
G# A#
All of my escapes have been exhausted
I thought I had a way but then I lost it
F# G#
And my resistance was once much stronger
A#
And I know I can't go on like this much longer
F#, C#, F#, C#
C# A#
When I got tired of running from you
F#
I stopped right there to catch my breath
C#
There your words they caught my ears
G# C#
You said, "I miss you son. Come home"
A#
And my sins, they watched me leave
F#
And in my heart I so believed
C#
The love you felt for me was mine
G# D#
The love I'd wished for all this time
And when the doors were closed
A# G#
I heard no I told you so's
F#
I said the words I knew you knew
C# G#
Oh God, Oh God I needed you
A# G# F#
God all this time I needed you, I needed you
F# C#
And I so hate consequences
A# G#
And running from you is what my best defense is
F# C#
I hate these Consequences
A#
And I know that I let you down
G#
And I don't want to deal with that
Outro: F#, G#, A#, F#, C#, F#, C#

| I'll be honest- I'm not a fan of pop punk, punk rock... whatever you'd like to classify Relient K. But my good friend and boyfriend are fans, and I got ahold of "MMHMM". Not a bad album. I cannot begin to explain how much I relate to this song. The ending alone is just amazing. | |

| I know they're a christian band and everything, but it seems slightly more plausable that this song is about parents. ("And when you spelled it out, well, I guess I didn’t get that.") It seems that his parents would be more likely to be spelling things out or be on the receiving end of alibis than God. Either way, the lyrical poetry exhibited is just awesome. | |
