Night Cab

	  		

A 
The raindrops on the roof of the car 
              Aadd4/F# 
Sound like a warning 
                      A 
I'm alone in the backseat 
                            
And in the clouded sky a pondering star 
         Aadd4/F#   
Waits for morning 
                A 
To go back to sleep 
          D                    F#m   
There's a great big world out there 
        E                             Bm 
Of good and bad and everything in between 
      D                         F#  E  
I've got my own small world in here 
                                       Bm  E 
Of happy and sad and the little I have seen 

      Bm  C#m D       Bm   C#m D 
Keep driving, keep driving 
      Bm  C#m D       Bm   C#m D 
Keep driving, keep driving 


A 
The silent lamppost bows down its head 
              Aadd4/F# 
Encircled by darkness 
                      A 
With time on its side 
                            
And when everyone I know are in bed 
         Aadd4/F#   
My light shines the sharpest 
                A 
Across the divide 
          D                    F#m   
There's a deep blue sea out there 
        E                             Bm 
Of birth and death and the lovely mess in between 
      D                         F#  E  
I've got my own short life in here 
                                       Bm  E 
Going to God-knows-where in this fast machine 

      Bm  C#m D       Bm   C#m D 
Keep driving, keep driving 
      Bm  C#m D       Bm   C#m D 
Keep driving, keep driving 
      Bm  C#m D       Bm   C#m D 
Keep driving, keep driving 
      Bm  C#m D       Bm   C#m D 
Keep driving, keep driving 

(then you just keep the Bm C#m D groove through:) 

              Bm                  C# D              
Through the city, past the billboards 
              Bm                  C# D    
Selling hope to hopeless souls 
              Bm                  C# D    
To the outskirts where every locked door 
              Bm                  C# D    
Has seen things that no-one knows 
              Bm                  C# D    
Past the beaches where the wind blows 
              Bm                  C# D    
And the waves caress the shore 
              Bm                  C# D    
Through the forest where a tree grows 
              Bm                  C# D    
For two hundred years or more 
              Bm                  C# D    

      A           
The raindrops on the roof of the car 
               Aadd4/F# 
Sound like a warning 
                     A 
I'm alone in the backseat 
And in the clouded sky a lonesome star 
            Aadd4/F# 
Waits for morning 
               A 
To go back to sleep
