[Dm] [Fm]
[E] [D] [C#] [D]
[C#m] I'm feeling [D] mighty lonesome, [C#] [D] haven't slept a wink.
[C#m] I walk the [D] floor and [G#] watch the door [C#m] and in between [G] I drink [F#] black coffee.
Love's [G#] a [C#] hand-me-down brew, [D] [G#] [C#] [C#m] [A#] [E] [D#m] I'll never know a [F] Sunday [C#] in this [C#m] weekday [D] room.
[G#] [C#m] [G#m] [D] [C#m] I'm talking [Fm] to the shadows, [E] one o'clock to [F] four, [G#] and [E] Lord how slow the [F] moments [G#] go when
[C#m] all I [G] do is pour [F#] [C#m] black coffee.
[C#] [F#] I've been drinking since the [G#] blues caught my [D#] [G#] eye.
[D] [D#m] I'm hanging out on [G#m] Monday, my [F#] Sunday dreams [C#m] too dry.
[D] [C#] Now [F#m] a man is born [G#] to go [C#m] alone, [F#m] a woman's born [G#] to weep [C#] and fret [G#m] and [Em] stay at [D#] home to tend
[D] [G] and drown her [A] past regrets [F] in coffee and [Dm] cigarettes.
[C#] I'm moaning [D] all the morning, [C#] mourning [D] all the night, [C#m] and in between [Dm] it's [C#] nicotine [E] and
not [C#m] much high profile.
[A#] [F#]
Coffee, feeling low [C#] as the [Dm] ground.
[C#] It's driving [Bm] me [G] crazy, [D#m] just waiting for my [A] baby [C#] to maybe come.

[D] [G#] [C#] [D] [C#m] You.
