Big Yellow Taxi

Joni Mitchell

C

They paved paradise

G

And put up a parking lot

C D

With a pink hotel, a boutique

G

And a swinging hot spot

CHORUS:

D

Don’t it always seem to go

C

That you don't know what you’ve got

G

‘Til it's gone

C

They paved paradise

D G

And put up a parking lot

C

They took all the trees

G

And put them in a tree museum

C

And they charged the people

D G

A dollar and a half just to seem 'em

Chorus

C

Hey farmer, farmer

G

Put away that DDT now

C

Give me spots on my apples

D G

But leave me the birds and the bees, Please!

Chorus

C

Late last night

G

I heard the screen door slam

C

And a big yellow taxi

D G

Took away my old man

Chorus x2

C

They paved paradise

D G

And put up a parking lot

C

They paved paradise

D G

And put up a parking lot
