"Chariot" is a single by Gavin DeGraw released in 2005, taken from his 2003 album of the same name. It's believed the song addresses the overwhelming feeling Gavin felt when he moved to New York from his rural hometown. In the song, he is supposedly pleading for a chariot to come and take him home (i.e. "You'll be my vacation away from this place/ You know what I want").

"Chariot" peaked at number thirty in July, 2005 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the U.S. It was certified Platinum. It was featured prominently in a 2004 episode of Dead Like Me, in which he had prior guest starred.

DeGraw said on "Chariot":

The music video for "Chariot" was directed by Zach Braff, who also directed music videos for Joshua Radin. It stars model and actress Jaime King and also features a brief cameo from Donald Faison, who plays the role of Christopher Turk in the TV show Scrubs, in which Braff is also a cast member.
