Chords for Taxi

_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ [G] It _ _ [F] was raining hard in Frisco [C] I needed one more [Am] fair to make my night
A lady up [C] ahead waved a flag me down [Bb] She got in at the light
_ Oh where you going to my lady blue [C] It's a shame you ruined your gown in the rain
She just looked out the window She said sixteen parks I'd paint _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
Something about her was familiar I could swear I'd seen her face before
But she said I'm sure you're mistaken And she didn't say anything more _
It took a while but she looked in the mirror Then she glanced at the license for my [A] name
A smile seemed to come to her slowly [C] It was [Bb] a sad smile just [D] to say
_ [G] And she said [D] how are you Harry I said how are you Sue
[G] Through the too many [D] miles and the [Bm] two little smiles I still [E] _ [D] remember you _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ It was somewhere in a fairy tale I used to [A] take her home in my [D] car
We learned about love in the back of a Dodge The lesson hadn't gone too far
_ You [G] see she was gonna [Em] be an actress [D] And I was gonna learn [Bm] to fly
[G] She took off to [D] find the footlights I took off to find the sky _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Oh I've got something inside [Bm] me To drive the princess [E] blind
[Am] There's a wild man wizard He's hiding in me [D] Illuminating [Em] my mind
_ [C] Oh I've got something [Bm] inside me Not what my [E] life's about
[Am] Cause I've been letting my outside [Bb] drive me over Till my time [Eb] runs out _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _
So [B] I [C] _ _ [Em] must [Gm] be smiling _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ [Em] _ at her [Am] smile _
_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ [G] _ _ [D] _
_ _ [Em] There was not much more [D] for us to talk about Whatever we had once was gone
So I turned my cab into the driveway Past the gate and the fine trim logs
_ And she said we must get together But I knew it'd never be arranged
Then she handed me twenty dollars for a two-fifty fare [C] She said Harry [D] keep the change
_ Well another man might have been angry And another man might have been hurt
But another man never would let her go [Bb] I stashed the bill in [D] my shirt _ _
[G] And she walked away [D] in silence It's strange how you never know
But we'd both gotten [Bm] what we'd asked for [Em] Such a long, [A]
long [D] time ago
You see she was gonna be an actress And I was gonna learn to fly
She took off to find the footlights I took off for the sky
_ And [G] here she's acting [Em] happy [D] Inside her [Bm] handsome home
[G] And me, I'm flying in [D] my taxi Taking tips and getting stoned
I [Em] go flying [A] so high when [E] I'm stoned _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
