The lyrics are:
Dm           C                       G riff 
I~m taking a ride with my best friend

I hope he never lets me down again
Dm                  C
He knows where he~s taking me
Gm                Bb
Taking me where I want to be
Dm           C                       G riff 
I~m taking a ride with my best friend
Riff 2:  Dm   C    G riff 
Cm           Bb
We~re flying high
                   Gm            F
We~re watching the world pass us by
Cm                 Bb
Never want to come down

Never want to put my feet back down on the ground

I hope he never lets me down again
Dm                 C
Promises me I~m as safe as houses

As long as I remember who~s wearing the trousers

Never let me down
A            Gm
Never let me down
Dm                    C
See the stars they~re shining bright
A               Gm
Everything is alright tonight…

For playing guitar, I highly suggest you to play the ending chords in this
manner, as it does add gloom to the song:
   Dm   C    A    Gm
E|-5--|-x--|-5--|-6--|
B|-6--|-5--|-5--|-8--|
G|-7--|-5--|-6--|-7--|
D|-7--|-5--|-7--|-5--|
A|-5--|-3--|-7--|----|
E|----|----|-5--|----|
And that is it.
