"'Chariot'" is a song by American singer-songwriter Gavin DeGraw. It appears on his 2003 debut studio album, 'Chariot', and was released as the album's second single in February 2005. The song addresses the overwhelming feeling Gavin felt when he moved to New York from his rural hometown; in the songs, he pleads for a (metaphorical) chariot to come and take him home.

Upon its release, "Chariot" peaked at number 30 on the US 'Billboard' Hot 100 chart in July 2005 and was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Worldwide, the song reached the top 20 in the Netherlands and Norway and peaked at number 30 on 'Radio & Records' Canadian CHR/Pop Top 30 chart.
