Intro:
A D A E (4x)
A    D
  oh no, god damn
A              E 
  I missed the last tram
A            D 
  I killed a party again
A     E         A
  god damn, god damn
        D 
I wanna sleep in my bed
A         E
  I wanna clean up my head
A             D 
  don't wanna look this dead
           A          E  
don't wanna feel this dread

I killed a party again
I ruined it for my friends
well you're so silent, Jens
well maybe I am, maybe I am

now at the central station
no time for being patient
I feel like going home
but at the same time I don't

A       D   A      E
  black cab, black cab
A       D   A      E 
  black cab, black cab
A       D   A      E 
  black cab, black cab
A       D   A      E 
  black cab, black cab  

and I've heard all the stories
'bout the black cabs and the way they drive
but if you take a ride with them
you may not come back alive

they might be psycho killers
but tonight I really don't care
so I say turn up the music
take me home or take me anywhere

black cab, black cab
black cab, black cab

C#m
  you don't know anything
Dmaj7
  so don't ask me questions
C#m
  you don't know anything
Dmaj7
  so please don't ask me any questions
C#m
  you don't know anything
Dmaj7
  so don't ask me questions
C#m
  just turn the music up
Dmaj7
  and keep your mouth shut

black cab, black cab
black cab, black cab
