Taxi Cab Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Unsentimental, traveling around
[G]Sur[D]e of myself, sure of it now
But [G]you [D]were standing
there so close to me
Like the future was supposed to be
In the aisles of the grocery
And the blocks [G]uptown
[D]I remember, remem[G]ber it [D]well
[G]But if I'd forgot[D]ten, could you[G] tel[D]l?
[G]In the shadow of [D]your first attack
I was questioning and looking back
[G]You said, "Baby,
we don't [D]speak of that"
Like a [G]real ar[D]istocrat

[Verse 2]
Compound to [D]compound,
[G]lazy [D]and safe
[G]Wanted to [D]leave it, wanted to wait
[G]When the taxi [A]door was [D]open wide
I pretended I was horrified
By the uniform and gloves outside
Of the courtyard [G]gate
You're [A]not a [D]victim,
[G]but nei[Em]ther am [F#m]I[A]
Nostalgic [D]for garbage,
[G]desperate for[D] tim[F#m]e[A]
I could blame it on your [D]mother's [G]hair
Or the colors that your [D]father [A]wears
But I know that I was [D]never [G]fair
You were [D]always fine

[Verse 3]
[D]mental,
[Bm]traveling arou[D]nd[G]
Sure of [D]myself, [Bm]sure of it[D] now
You were standing there so close to me
Like the future was supposed to [G]be
In the aisles of the [D]grocery
And the block[G]s up[D]town[G]
I re[D]member, [G]remember it [F#m]well[Em]
[A]And if [Em]I'd forgott[D]en,
[G]could you[F#m] tell?[A]
In the shadow of your [D]first [G]attack
I was questioning and [F#m]looking [A]back
You were standing on an[D]other [G]track
Like a real ar[F#m]istocrat
