It's cold. 
Bb5         G5 
I know I'm growing old. 
    G5                         C5 
But life's ?best side? on the downward slope 
G5                       C5 
It's in my own hands; I know how to cope. 
   Eb5                 F5                  D5   D5  D5 D5 
My girl's with me and all my friends can see...

                G5               C5    D5 G5        C5       D5 
Here I am again, early morning, cold taxi. 
G5              C5    D5 G5 
Early morning, cold taxi. 

(Verse 2) 
G5 
Done it before. 
D5 
Do it again. 
Bb5                    G5 
Know from experience, it's not in vain. 
          G5                C5 
She's the best I've had, I cannot see. 
G5                       C5 
What someone else could do to me. 
       Eb5                 F5                     D5     D5  D5 
It's a long way home, but love's so warm you'll see. 

(Chorus) 
                G5               C5    D5 G5        C5       D5 
Here I am again, early morning, cold taxi. 
G5              C5    D5 G5 
Early morning, cold taxi. 

(Bridge)

Early morning cold taxi 
     C5               G5       G**      G5    (**not sure if this is C5 ) 
Each time I do it, I feel so down and out. 
Bb5                 F5 
Early morning cold taxi 
          C5                         G5    G5     G5 
Though my mind thinks strange, I'll keep on no doubt.

I know I'm growing old. 
G5       C5              G5                     C5 
One day we'll be wed.  This I know, for it's what she said. 
Eb5                F5          D5          E5 
Then no more will my mind be uneasy.
