Thank you very, very much, ladies and gentlemen.
Well, here, here's, here's a little song you can
sing along with.
It's called Cab Driver.
[Db] [Ab] Cab driver, drive by Mary's place.
[Eb] I just want a chance [Db] to see her face.
I hope to [Eb] stop the meter, let it [Db] race.
[Ab] Cab driver, drive by Mary's [Db] place.
[Db] Cab driver, I want some more around [Ab] the block.
[Ebm] [Ab] Never mind the ticking of [Db] the clock.
I only wish we could have had [Gb] a talk.
[Gm] [Ab] Cab driver, once more down the block.
[Bbm] Cab driver, once more down [Ab] the street.
[Ebm] There's a little place we used [Db] to be.
That's where I laid my future [Gb] at her feet.
[Gm] [Ab] Driver, once more down [Db] the street.
Cab driver, wait here by [Ab] her door.
[Eb] [Ebm] I just want to hold [Ab] her in my arms [Db] once more.
[Abm] That thing may [Db] be just like they were [Gb] before.
[Eb] [Ab] Cab driver, wait here by [Db] her door.
Cab driver, you better take [Ab] me home.
I guess that I was meant to be [Db] alone.
I hope God sends me a loved one of my own.
[Gm] [Ebm]
You better take [Db] me home, [Ab] cab driver.
You better take [Db] me home, [Ab] cab driver.
[Eb] Better take me home.
[Db]
[Bb] [D] [Eb]
This little song, well, it's comparatively new.
It's from one of our more recent albums.
[D]
It's called, it's called, I'm Sorry I Answered the Phone.
[Abm]
[Db] [Gb]
I'm sorry I [Bb]
answered [B] the phone.
[Abm]
For then [Abm] I [Ab] have [Db]
known that you and [Gb] called to say we're [Db] through.
[Ab] You don't know how [Db] to hear I'm losing you.
[Gb] I'm sorry [Bb] it turned out [B] this way.
[Eb] [Abm] And I hope I'll [Eb] forget you [B] someday.
[Abm]
[B] Well, I guess that's [Bm] all.
I appreciate your [Eb] call.
[Abm] But I'm sorry [Ebm] I answered the [Gb]
[Ab] [Db] [Bb]
[Bbm] phone.
For [Ab] [Abm] then I have [Db] known that [B] you and [Gb] called to say we're through.
[Ab] You don't know how it hurts to [Db] hear I'm losing you.
[F] Yes, [Gb] I'm sorry [Bb] it turned out [B] this way.
[Abm] And I hope [Eb] I'll forget you [Abm] someday.
Well, [B] I guess [Bm] that's all.
