Traffic In The Sky

Chords
pin

D                      F#m
There?s traffic in the sky
               C                       Em
And it doesn't seem to be getting much better
                     D   
There?s kids playing games on the pavement
        F#m                      C
Drawing waves on the pavement mm-hm
               Em                        D
Shadows of the planes on the pavement mm-hm 
                       F#m
It's enough to make me cry
               C                               Em
But that don't seem like it would make it feel better
             D              
Maybe it's a dream and if I scream 
        F#m
It will burst at the seams 
     C                          Em
This whole place will fall into pieces 
                A   G#
And then they'd say

G                      A
Well how could we have known
                       D           Bm			
I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell
        G
Nah nah nah
                A  
You keep adding stones
               D
Soon the water will
               Bm
Be lost in the well
G           A
Mmmm mmmm

D                    F#m
Puzzle pieces in the ground
    C                       Em
But no one ever seems to be digging 
                        D                                 F#m
Instead they're looking up towards the heavens with their eyes on the heavens
 
C                                 Em
Shadows on the way to the heavens
D                      F#m
It's enough to make me cry 
               C                               Em
But that don't seem like it would make it feel better 
                     D                                 F#m
The answers could be found we could learn from digging down 
    C                       Em
But no one ever seems to be digging 
                A   G#
Instead they?ll say

G                      A
Well how could we have known
                       D           Bm			
I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell
        G
Nah nah nah
                A  
You keep adding stones
               D
Soon the water will
               Bm
Be lost in the well

G         A
Mmmm mmmm

D                   F#m
Words of wisdom all around 
    C                    Em
But no one ever seems to listen 
                            D
They?re talking about their plans on the paper 
         F#m
Building up from the pavement 
C                                Em
Shadows from the scrapers on the pavement 
D                      F#m
It?s enough to make me sigh 
               C                               Em
But that don?t seem like it would make it feel better 
                   D                            F#m
The words are all around but the words are only sounds 
    C                    Em
And no one ever seems to listen 
                A   G#
Instead they?ll say

G                      A
Well how could we have known
                       D           Bm			
I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell
        G
Nah nah nah
                A  
You keep adding stones
               D
Soon the water will
               Bm  G  A  D
Be lost in the well
