_ _ _ [C] _ I'm _ feeling mighty [Dbm] _ _
_ lonesome, _ [Em] _ _
haven't slept a wink.
_ [B] _ _ I [C] walk the floor and [Bb] watch the door, _ _ [C]
and in between I drink _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ [Am] black _ [Bb] coffee.
[C] Sunday _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ loves [Ab] _ a hand-me _
[Cm]-down brew.

I'm _ talking to the [G] _ shadows, _ _ _
[C] _ one o [Db]'clock
till four, _ _ [C]
and oh how _ [Dbm] slow the _ moments [C] go _ when all I do [Ab] is _ pour _ [Dm] _ _ _ _
[Bb] black [C] coffee.
I'm feeling weary _
[F] _ _ _ _ since _ _ the _ _
[C] _ blues _ caught [G] my _ _ eye.

_ _ [C] dreams to dry.
_ [Dbm] _ _ _ _
_ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Fm] Now _ _ man is _ [Db] born to [C] go _ [Bb] loving, _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] _
but [Ab] was a woman _ [G] _ born _ to [C] weep and _ fret?
[G] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
[Ebm] _ _ To stay [Ab] at _ home [Db]
and tend her _ [Ab] oven, _ _ [Db] _ _ _
and [Gb] drown her past _ _ [Eb] regrets _ in [C] coffee _ [G] and cigarettes.
_ _ _ [C] _
I'm _ _ mourning all the [Gm] _ morning, _
[C] _ _ mourning all the [G] night, _ _ [C] and in _ [Db] between it's _ nicotine _ _
[Cm] and not much will to find. _ _ _
