B
I was thinkin' 'bout a shortcut I could take

F#
But it seems like I made a mistake

[organ]:

A#m G#m
I was wrong, mmm, I took too long

I got caught in the rush hour
G#m A#m
A fellow started to shower
G#m A#m
You with love and affection

Now you won't look in my direction


Chorus: [fuzz guitar doubles bass/piano riff from intro]

On the expressway to your heart

At five o'clock it's much too crowded

No room for me (too crowded)
D#m/B D#m/A#
Oh, too crowded

[repeat intro riff (w/organ on 2 beat), 2X]

Verse 2:

Now there's too many ahead of me
They're all the time gettin' in front of me
I thought I could find a clear road ahead
But I found stoplights instead

I was wrong, baby, I took too long
I got caught in the rush hour
A fellow started to shower
You with love and affection
Come on, look in my direction

[repeat chorus]

Coda: [repeat to fade w/car horns]:

D#m D#m/C#
Oh, much too crowded
D#m/B D#m/A#
Oh, so crowded
