DCan can you spare some conversation?

I Gneed a yellow taxi cab today
I neDed your taxi cab to take me away
I Gneed a yellow taxi cab today
So tDake us driver take us far away
EmI need someone like you
GSomeone to see me through
DPeople looking happy
While sadly I wait for my taxi
GShe was standing next to me
I lDooked alone she took me home
GIn her arms I laid my head
She Dlistened to everything I said
EmI need someone like you
GSomeone to talk to

GI'm standing out here all alone

GShe was standing next to me
There's room for you and rDoom for me
EmI need someone like you
GSomeone to talk to
DAnd we shared some conversation
And we shared some conversation
And we shared some conversation
Enjoy, if I find out the real tab, I'll post that too, but for now this should work.
