(Intro) A Em/A (4x)

        A      Em/A    A      Em/A           A        Em/A         A       Em/A
It was raining hard in Frisco       I needed one more fare to make my night
  A        Em/A          A       Em/A  G       F         A    Em/A  A  Em/A
A lady up ahead waved to flag me down  she got in at the light
   A              Em/A  A        Em/A      
Oh where ya going to my lady blue       
       A         Em/A        A    Em/A   A    Em/A
It?s a shame you ruined your gown in the rain
    A    Em/A           A      Em/A          G       F        A    Em/A  A  Em/A
She just looked out the window      she said Sixteen Parkside Lane


(Interlude) A G D (hold) A G B (hold)   


B          A            B        A          B         A             B      A
Something about her was familiar    I could swear I?d seen her face before
    B            A              B     A         A          G        B    A B A 
But she said I?m sure you?re mistaken   and she didn?t say anything more 
          B             A             B      A              
It took a while but she looked in the mirror 
         B              A           B      A              
Then she glanced at the license for my name 
  B               A           B      A          A   G              B    A  B  A  
A smile seemed to come to her slowly   it was a sad smile just the same


(Chorus)

        E                B        A    E           B 
And she said how are you Harry, I said how are you Sue
            E        F#        B          G#m      E          A      B   A
Through the too many miles and too little smiles I still... remember you 


(Interlude) B  A(4x) A  G  B  A  B  A   


       B   A          B          A  B                A          B   A          
It was somewhere in a fairy tale  I used to take her home in my car
   B             A           B         A              
We learned about love in the back of a Dodge
    A       G               B   A  B  A          
The lessons hadn?t gone too far

        E                   C#m7         B                    G#m
You see she was gonna be an actress, and I was gonna learn to fly 
E                        B          E      A               B   A B A (build up)
She took off to find the footlights I took off to find the sky 
                               

(Bridge) 

   A                           G#m                     C#
Oh I?ve got something inside me    to drive a princess blind
          A        F#          F#m           B              C#m 
There's a wild man wizard he?s hiding in me, illuminatin my mind
   A                            G#m                     C#
Oh I?ve got something inside me     not what my life's about 
      F#m       C#m        F#m             D                      B   A  B  A 
Cause I?ve been letting my outside tide me over till my time runs out


          B        A              B          A  
There was not much more for us to talk about          
    B       A            B    A
Whatever we had once was gone
     B         A            B        A      
So I turned my cab into the driveway
         A            G            B     A  B  A          
Past the gate and the fine trimmed lawns
        B    A             B      A       B               A    B      A
And she said we must get together   but I knew it?d never be arranged 
        B              A             B         A   
And she hand me twenty dollars for a two fifty fare
         A       G          B      A  B  A          
And said   Harry   keep the change 

       B                         A  
Well another man might have been angry         
      B                         A 
And another man might have been hurt
      B                          A             
But another man never would have let her go
A               G          B     A  B  A          
  I stashed the bill in my shirt

(Chorus)

        E              B             A               E     B 
And she walked away in silence, it?s strange how you never know
    E         F#               B         G#m        E             A     B  A  B A
But we'd both gotten what we'd asked for     such a long... long, time ago


        B             A     B       A     B           A        B   A 
You see she was gonna be an actress   and I was gonna learn to fly
B        A               B          A  A      G              B   A  B  A          
She took off to find the footlights    I took off to for the sky 

    E                   C#m7     B                 G#m
And here's she's acting happy, inside her handsome home
    E              B            E        A      B      A  B A
And me I fly in my taxi, taking tips and gettin stoned 
     C#m7      F#             B      A  B  A  B  A  B A  D(hold)
I go flying so high, when I?m stoned
