[Verse]
G
I was resting again
G
The leaves were restless again
C
They’re my only friends
G
No matter where they’ve been
D7 C
I just need a place to sleep
G D
A place to take me in
[Verse]
G
I’ve got a couple of songs
G
I play em on the corner at dawn
C
Whichever sidewalk I’m on
G
Until the people are gone
D7 C
I just need a place to go
G D
So I don’t sleep on the lawn
[Chorus]
G
Last night I slept in a big yellow taxi
G
My imagination told me I was in the back seat
C G
Of course, that was a story I sung
D7 C
Even though I had clothes, I froze
G D
Even my jacket was cold
[Verse]
G
So flick a couple nickels my way
G
I will get the pecking away
C
A couple licks I can play
G
And now you’re fixing to pay
D7
But everybody’s cheap
C G D
And now I’m sleeping in my taxi today
[Chorus]
G
Last night I slept in a big yellow taxi
G
My imagination told me I was in the back seat
C G
Of course, that was a story I sung
D7 C
Even though I had clothes, I froze
G D
Even my jacket was cold
[Verse]
G
So maybe I should call it a night
G
Yes, I know I gave it a fight
C
But now my body is tight
G
Stuck in the city lights
D7 C
I don’t want to go, but I know
G D
Maybe my parents are right
[Chorus]
(x2)
