[Intro]
 
Em   C   G   D
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
Em           C
Blacked out, everything's faded
   G              D
On your love, I'm already wasted
Em        C                   G    D
So close, that I can taste it now, now
 
Em                   C                   G
So let's break right out of these guilty cages
D                         Em
We're going to make it now
C                       G
Don't ever turn around
D                      Em
Don't ever turn around
 
 
[Chorus]
 
       C                 G
Nobody else needs to know
D                 Em
Where we might go
              C                   G
We could just run them red lights
              D                   Em
We could just run them red lights
 
               C             G
There ain't no reason to stay
         D               Em
We'll be light years away
              C                  G
We could just run them red lights
              D
We could just run them red lights
 
 
[Instrumental Break]
 
4 measure epic build-up (mute before the drop): Em
 
Followed by the drop (follow the song for timing):
 
Em C G D Em C G
 
              D                  Em (1 strum)
We could just run them red lights
 
 
[Verse 2] (same chords as 1st verse and so on)
 
White lights, flirt in the darkness
This road leads where your heart is
These signs, something we can't ignore no
 
We can't back down
We'll never let them change us
We're going to make it now
What are we waiting for
What are we waiting for
 
 
[Chorus] (same as above)
 
Nobody else needs to know
Where we might go
We could just run them red lights
We could just run them red lights
 
There ain't no reason to stay
We'll be light years away
 
We could just run them red lights
We could just run them red lights

In the first verse, it should be "gilded cages" instead of "guilty cages". I know a google search of the lyrics currently shows "guilty", but genius and a-z lyrics both say "gilded" and if you listen closely, that's what Michel Zitron sings in the actual song.

Write out all the chords... it’s not hard. That’s why people look up chord charts
