Traffic Lyrics
Stereophonics
In two of the verses there is a part in which the hammer-on and pull-off effect takes action just like in the Intro section. These parts are marked by an asterisk (*) next to the chord (listen to the track to hear what I'm on about).

Intro:
Verse 1:
We all face the same way
Still it takes all day
Take a look to my left
Pick out the worst and the best
She paints her lip
Greasy and thick
Another mirror stare
And she's going where?
Verse 2:
(Same chords and rhythm as Verse 1)
Another office affair
To kill an unborn scare?
You talk dirty to a priest
Makes you human at least
Is she running away
To start a brand new day?
Or she going home?
Why's she driving alone?
Chorus 1:
Is anyone going anywhere?
Everyone's gotta be somewhere
Verse 3:
(Same chords and rhythm as Verses 1 and 2)
She got a body in the boot
Or just bags full of food?
Those are models legs
But are they womens are they mens?
She shouts down the phone
Missed a payment on the loan
She gotta be above the rest
Keeping up with the best
Chorus 2:
Is anyone going anywhere?
Everyone's gotta be somewhere
Bridge:
Verse 4:
(Same chords and rhythm as Verses 1, 2 and 3)
Waits tables for a crook?
Wrote a hard back book?
You teach kids how to read?
Or sell your body on the street?
A nurse without a job?
Another uptown snob?
But have I got you all wrong?
Chorus 3:
Is anyone going anywhere?
Is anyone going anywhere?
Is anyone going anywhere?
Everyone's gotta be somewhere
