VERSE 1:
D G A
I found me a new way to go
D G A
I got sick of walking on the road
D G A
Those dead end streets I couldn't see
D G A
Was this the life to live was I really free
D G A
I tried to think and understand why I felt this way
D G A
But something kept on bugging me I need some truth today
D G A
I started yelling out your name
D G A
Waiting for you to cure my pain
CHORUS:
Bm G A
You picked me up on the side of the road
Bm G A
You asked me where I'm heading said I didn't know
Bm G A
You said hop on in we'll go for a ride
Bm G A D
I am the one and only Taxi Cab Guy
VERSE 2:
D G A
You saw me walking all alone
D G A
You pulled on up along the side
D G A
You asked me if I'm going home
D G A
I hung my head with no reply
D G A
I said hey cabby how much does it cost
D G A
I got no money and I guess I'm kind lost
D G A
You told me that it'll be okay
D G A
The price has been paid for anyway
CHORUS

VERSE 3:
D G A
So here I am cruisen today
D G A
You telling strangers all along the way
D G A
I ask them if they need a ride
D G A
They look at the car and think they'll never fit in
D G A
But the car will never get full it'll never end
D G A
Some ask me why I go this way
D G A
Cause He's the only one that knows the way
D G A
And remember it's a real ruff ride
D G A
So put your seat belt on and don't back seat drive
D G A
And another thing you might need to know
D G A
We only take the narrow road
CHORUS
The End!
