Em C D
Oh, Peter's a cabby on Adelaide roads
Em C D
And in five o'clock traffic that's a hard road to hoe
Em C D Em C D
And he hunts for his family in a Holden with a two-way and meter
Em C D
And there's no air conditioning where he plies his trade
Em C D
On the green plate stand by the Rundle Arcade
Em C D Em C D
Sits and he waits for the privilege of driving you home
[Instrumental]
D Am D Am D G D D/F# Em C D
[Verse]
Em C D
And there's no Mr. Muzak in the front of his cab
Em C D
Just a crackling voice dog-eared roadmap
Em C D Em C D
And a torch and a biro sliding around on the dash
[Verse]
Em C D
And your life's in his hand when they're gripped on the wheel
Em C D
The water pump rattles and the Michelins squeal
Em C D Em C D
He's been driving for years sometimes it feels like forever
[Instrumental]
D Am D Am D G D D/F# Em C D
[Verse]
Em C D
And knows very well your city of gardens
Em C D
He'll take you from town drop you at Marsden
Em C D Em C D
Peak hour: five minutes, if you think that's easy just try it
[Verse]
Em C D
He can change a flat tire in three minutes flat
