Black Coffee

[C]I'm feeling mighty [G]lonesome [C]Haven't slept a [G]wink

[C]I walk the floor and [G]watch the door And [C]in between I [F]drink

[F]Black Coffee Love's a hand me [C]down [G]brew [A7]

[Dm]I'll never know a [F]Sunday [Dm]In this [G]weekday [C]room

 

[C]I'm talking to the [G]shadows [C]1 o'clock to [G]4

[C]And Lord, how [G]slow the moments go When [C]all I do is [G]pour

[F]Black Coffee Since the blues [C]caught my [G]eye [A7]

[Dm]I'm hanging out on [F]Monday My [Dm]Sunday [G]dream's too [C]dry

 

Now a [F]man is born to go a [C]lovin' A [F]woman's born to [D7]weep and [G7]fret

To [C7]stay at home and tend her [F]oven

And [D7]drown her past regrets In [G7]coffee and cigarettes

 

[C]I'm moody all the [G]morning [C]Mourning all the [G]night

[C]And in between it's [G]nicotine [C]And not much hard to [G]fight

[F]Black Coffee Feelin' low [C]as the ground

It's driving me [Am]crazy just [Em]waiting for my [F]baby [G]To maybe come a[C]round

 

[Dm]My nerves have gone to pieces [E7]my hair is turning gray

[Dm]All I do is drink black coffee [G]Since my man's gone a[C]way
