Night Cab by Tina Dico
Night Cab
Standard tuning. Capo on 2. Chords relative to the capo (eg "A" is really B). Song is
simple, but requires the ability to play barre chords.
Couple of notes:
The only nonstandard chord, Aadd4/F#, is pretty easy. It's just:
E 0
B 2
G 2
D 0
A 0
E 2
All she's doing is playing a normal open-position A major chord,
and moving her finger from the D string to the low E string.
(You could think of it as a F#m7add6, but it's easier to think
about as an A chord given how you play it).
Also, in the chorus and bridge, when she's playing Bm C#m D, the D chord
is a barred D on the fifth fret, not an open D chord like she plays in the verse.
A
The raindrops on the roof of the car
Aadd4/F#
Sound like a warning
A
I'm alone in the backseat
And in the clouded sky a pondering star
Aadd4/F#
Waits for morning
A
To go back to sleep
D F#m
There's a great big world out there
E Bm
Of good and bad and everything in between
D F# E
I've got my own small world in here
Bm E
Of happy and sad and the little I have seen
Bm C#m D Bm C#m D
Keep driving, keep driving
Bm C#m D Bm C#m D
Keep driving, keep driving
A
The silent lamppost bows down its head
Aadd4/F#
Encircled by darkness
A
With time on its side
And when everyone I know are in bed
Aadd4/F#
My light shines the sharpest
A
Across the divide
D F#m
There's a deep blue sea out there
E Bm
Of birth and death and the lovely mess in between
D F# E
I've got my own short life in here
Bm E
Going to God-knows-where in this fast machine
Bm C#m D Bm C#m D
Keep driving, keep driving
Bm C#m D Bm C#m D
Keep driving, keep driving
Bm C#m D Bm C#m D
Keep driving, keep driving
Bm C#m D Bm C#m D
Keep driving, keep driving
(then you just keep the Bm C#m D groove through:)
Bm C# D
Through the city, past the billboards
Bm C# D
Selling hope to hopeless souls
Bm C# D
To the outskirts where every locked door
Bm C# D
Has seen things that no-one knows
Bm C# D
Past the beaches where the wind blows
Bm C# D
And the waves caress the shore
Bm C# D
Through the forest where a tree grows
Bm C# D
For two hundred years or more
Bm C# D
A
The raindrops on the roof of the car
Aadd4/F#
Sound like a warning
A
I'm alone in the backseat
And in the clouded sky a lonesome star
Aadd4/F#
Waits for morning
A
To go back to sleep
