Dm (xx0231@1)           F (133211@1)               C (x32010@1)  And I could cut my cold breath with a knife

Gm (355333@1)                          F (133211@1)  A yellow cab from JFK, the long way round
            Gm (355333@1)                            F (133211@1)  I didn't mind... gave me thinking time before I ran aground
Dm (xx0231@1)        F (133211@1)          C (x32010@1)  On rocky memories and choking tears
      Dm (xx0231@1)           F (133211@1)                     C (x32010@1)    Dm (xx0231@1)  I believe it only rained round here these thirty years

Cm (x3101x@1)                  Gm (355333@1)          F (133211@1)  To place upon your pillow as the morning came?

Gm (355333@1)                                F (133211@1)  Thin wind stings my face... pull collar up
Gm (355333@1)                          F (133211@1)       C (x32010@1)  I could murder coffee in a grande cup
Dm (xx0231@1)          F (133211@1)              C (x32010@1)  No welcome deli; there's no Starbucks here
Dm (xx0231@1)            F (133211@1)                    C (x32010@1)         Dm (xx0231@1)  A dime for a quick phone call could cost me dear

Eb (x43121@3)          Dm (xx0231@1)              Bb (x1333x@1)                    Gm (355333@1)  And the first snow on Brooklyn paints a Christmas card upon the pavement
Cm (x3101x@1)                     Gm (355333@1)              Bb (x1333x@1)          F (133211@1)  The cab leaves a disappearing trace and then it's gone
           Eb (x43121@3)           Dm (xx0231@1)                Bb (x1333x@1)           Gm (355333@1)  And the snow covers my footprints, deep regrets and heavy heartbeats
Cm (x3101x@1)                          Gm (355333@1)                    F (133211@1)  When you wake you'll never see the spot that I was standing on
