Traffic In The Sky

[Intro]
| D F#m7 | C Em7 |

[Verse 1]
D                       F#m7
 There's traffic in the sky 
                   C                   Em7
And it doesn't seem to be getting much better
                     D
There's kids playing games on the pavement
        F#m7                          C
Drawing waves on the pavement, mm, hmm
               Em7
Shadows of the planes on the pavement, mm,
   D
hmm
                       F#m7
It's enough to make me cry 
               C                               Em7
But that don't seem like it would make it feel better
             D
Maybe it's a dream and if I scream
        F#m7
It will burst at the seams
     C                         Em7
Whole place will fall into pieces 
                A     Ab
And then they'd say...

[Chorus]
G                             A
 Well how could we have known?
                       D           Bm
I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell, no, no,
G
no
                         A
If you keep adding stones
               D                   Bm
Soon the water will be lost in the well
     G   A
Mmm, hmmm

[Verse 2]
D                     F#m7
 Puzzle pieces in the ground
  C                     Em7
No one ever seems to be digging
                        D
Instead they're looking up towards the heavens
           F#m7                        C
With their eyes on the heavens, mm, hmm
                         Em7
There are shadows on the way to the heavens, mm,
   D                   F#m7
hmm It's enough to make
me cry
           C                               Em7
That don't seem like it would make it feel better
                     D
The answers could be found
                            F#m7
We could learn from digging down
      C                     Em7
But no one ever seems to be digging
                A  Ab
Instead they'll say

[Chorus]
G                             A
 Well how could we have known?
                       D           Bm
I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell, no, no,
G
no
                         A
If you keep adding stones
               D                   Bm
Soon the water will be lost in the well
     G   A
Mmm, hmmm

[Verse 3]
D                     F#m7
 Words of wisdom all around
      C                      Em7
But no one ever seems to listen 
                            D
They're talking about their plans on the paper
         F#m7                          C
Building up  from the pavement, mm, hmm
                       Em7
There shadows from the scrapers on the pavement, mm,
   D
hmm
                       F#m7
It's enough to make me sigh
           C                               Em7
That don't seem like it would make it feel better
                   D
The words are all around
                       F#m7
But the words are only sounds
      C                      Em7
And no one ever seems to listen 
                A  Ab
Instead they'll say

[Chorus]
G                             A
 Well how could we have known?
                        D                 Bm
I'll tell them it's really not so hard to tell, no, no,
G
no
                         A
If you keep adding stones
               D                   Bm
Soon the water will be lost in the well,
            G        A
Lost in the well Mmm,
        D
mm, mm, mm.
