Just a line that came to me driving in the rain early this morning. The chorus is sung but the verses are done in an almost spoken voice...slow but steady.

Chasing Red Lights Down the Highway By: Felix G Chasing red lights down the highway C D In the drizzling rain again C D And I don’t know where I’m going C D G AND I DON’t know where I’ve been C D I just want to find happily forever C D A brand new place I can begin G Chasing red lights down the highway C D G In the drizzling rain again G Some girl’s singing about true love C My windshield wipers keeping time G Hmnn I wonder what she’s doing tonight C G If she could use a love…like mine My old guitars in the backseat I’m travelling light and fancy free The white line keeps me focused There’s no more going back for me (Chorus) She gave up the love I gave her Let it die like an autumn rose When I found her with another Is that how true love goes They say there’s sun in California There’s blue skies in Ohio But I’m just chasing taillights Where I’ll end up I don’t know (Chorus + fadeout)

Nice, and playful, too. There's a definite sense of freedom here - hitting the road and packed light. Great song, Fee. Love and Hugs,

I loved the rhythm of this song, and the imagery...there's just something great about driving songs (I love 'Driving Home for Christmas' and Roy Orbison's..'I Drove All Night')...Very enjoyable..

Hugs, Diana..
