[F#] Got into a [Em] cab in New York [F#] City, there's an oriental [E] man behind the wheel _ _ _ _ _
_ Started [Em] talking about [E] heaven like it was [Em] real, [E] real _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] Say they [Bm] got mansions [Em] in heaven _
Yeah, the [D] angels are building one for [C] me right now
[G] And I know _ they're [Em] saving the [E] best for last
[D] _ _ Look around this [Dm] town and tell me that it ain't [G] so
[Em] They're [Em] saving the best for [D] last
_ Don't ask me how I know, cause it [C] must be
_ Saving the best [Em] for last [E] for me _ _
_ _ [F#] You can [Em] go a hundred miles a [E] second, don't have to [Em] drive no lousy [B] cab _ _
[Em] Got everything you want and [E] more, man, and the [Em] king picks up [E] the tab
_ _ [C] Walk [Bm] around on the streets [Em] of gold all day
[E] And you never have to listen to what these customers say
And I know _ they're saving the best for [D] last
_ _ Look around this town and tell me that [E] it ain't so
[G] They're saving the best for [D] last
_ Don't ask me how I know, cause [Em] it must [C] be
They're saving the best for last for me
[A] _ _ [Em] _ [D] Oh, _ _ _ [C] saving the best [Em] for last for me
_ _ _ [C] _ Well, I remember when [G] I was a [D] child _ _ _
_ [C] Lost in the streets of [G] _ [D] Chinatown
_ _ _ [C] _ _ [D#] _ My mother [A#] had a vision and I was [C] found _
_ Saving the best [Em] for last for me
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ [D] _ [E] Oh, oh, [Em] oh, _ _ saving the best for [G] last _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
[D] _ _ [E] When I finally take this journey I'm gonna wave [Em] goodbye to [A] her
_ _ [Em] Gonna throw this meter in the ocean, prove what I was [D] worth
_ _ _ [Bm] And I don't care who tries to [Em] flag me down
They're gonna [D] have to find another ride uptown
[C]
Cause I, _ [G] _ _ they must be saving the best for last
_ Man, I look around this town so don't tell me that it ain't [G] so
_ They're just saving the best for [D] last
_ Don't ask me how I know, cause it [C] must be _
They're saving the best [Em] for last for me _
