Red Hot Chili Peppers - One Way Traffic: chords

              Em
Come from the sun in San Marino
Guess that makes me Angeleno
Friends got married, had them dogs
 D                   F
Now they read those catalogs
      Em
This commerce makes me nauseous (Ah)
When did life get so damn cautious?
So I drive in search of smiles
D
XM on, let's check out Miles

Em
This slice of life when you're out on the road
                                   D          F
Is always extra nice when there's someone to hold

Chorus:
C      Em
Ay-oh, way-oh
Am                D
Would you be my traffic jam?
C      Em
Ay-oh, way-oh
Am
Spirographic anagram
C      Em
Ay-oh, way-oh
Am                D
Would you be my traffic jam?
C      Em
Ay-oh, way-oh
Am            D
Would you be mine?

Anyway, I was headed south
Taste of coffee in my mouth
Up that off-ramp 405
Angry drivers on both sides
Got a call from my good friend Dave
He said, "Yo, let's get that wave"
I said, "Yes, just tell me where"
Board's up top, wind in my hair
From the mind of Frida Kahlo
Show me love and I will follow
From the words of my old man (Old man)
Conversations in the sand

This slice of life when you're out on the road
Is always extra nice when there's someone to hold

Chorus

Em                D                 A     G
I got a slice of life that's built for you
    Em                                   D             A         G
Oh, now, come and give me something to spread my bread onto (Onto)
               Em                            D     A         G
T-t-t, t-t-t, time and time again, we get a window and a clue
          Em                D       A
Time and time again, life-changing rendezvous

Anyway, made a left on third
Got distracted, jumped that curb
Unaware and on her walk
I hit the brakes, made time to talk
She said, "Can I get that ride?"
Oh my God, just get inside
It was all that I imagined
Born to ride, enthusiasm
Packed our bags and headed west
PCH, I'm so impressed
My friends said, "Havin' fun yet?"
We drove off into the sunset

This slice of life when you're out on the road
Is always extra nice when there's someone to hold

Chorus

Would you be mine?
Would you be mine?
Would you be mine?
Would you be mine? (Be mine, woah)
