Intro F G C 

verse 1 

It had been midnight on the street 
            G 
Someone had helped me to my feet 
                    Em   Am 
And said, there’s a taxi out there 
           Dm       C       G 
Waiting to take you to your door 


verse 2 
           C 
The driver said, "Your destination?" 
         G 
I said, "Take me to the fair 
             Em            Am 
The time’s a-wasting and I have to go 
    Dm        C       G        C 
And close the evening there"

verse 3 
        C 
Oh, the tunnel of love is cold and lonely 
       G 
In the hours before the dawn 
        Em                   Am 
And the ups and downs of the give and take  
    Dm           C       G 
Are not what I’m looking for 


verse 4 
    C 
The Rainbow Ride will take me 
             G 
To where the Northern lights are born 
       Em      Am 
All my days of trouble 
        Dm           C      G       F 
Will be ice till the end of time
