It's cold. 
Bb         G 
I know I'm growing old. 
    G                         C 
But life's ?best side? on the downward slope 
G                       C 
It's in my own hands; I know how to cope. 
   Eb                 F                  D   D4  D9 D

(Verse 2) 
G 
Done it before.

Do it again. 
Bb                    G 
Know from experience, it's not in vain. 
          G                C 
She's the best I've had, I cannot see. 
G                       C 
What someone else could do to me. 
       Eb                 F                     D     D4  D 
It's a long way home, but love's so warm you'll see. 

(Chorus) 
                G               C    D G        C       D

Early morning cold taxi 
     C               G       G**      G    (**not sure if this is C/G ) 
Each time I do it, I feel so down and out.

Early morning cold taxi 
          C                         G    G     G
