Five Cups of Coffee
The Jayhawks

from "Blue Earth" (Twin/Tone Records, 1989)
transcribed by John Davidson

::Verse 1::
AA Piano Chord 
	    GG Piano Chord 
 				AA Piano Chord 

Then I left here this morning it was just like before

AA Piano Chord 
       GG Piano Chord 
  				   AA Piano Chord 

You say nothing changes passing time around here

GG Piano Chord 
                     AA Piano Chord 

Stole a long string of pearls and I pawned downtown

GG Piano Chord 
                     AA Piano Chord 

Gonna buy me some good fun back where no one can see

::Chorus::
DD Piano Chord 
     CC Piano Chord 
    DD Piano Chord 
						CC Piano Chord 
   DD Piano Chord 

And the long black dream is over as the snow falls on and on

CC Piano Chord 
     DD Piano Chord 
                     CC Piano Chord 
     GG Piano Chord 
       AA Piano Chord 

And it takes five cups of coffee to calm down before I sleep

::Verse 2::
Let the sky soak on my clothes way back in the alley
All of the red beads mixed up in her pew
Take the chance that I left you knowing where you might lead me
So easy it is to believe in someone I never see

::Chorus::
::Break::
::Chorus::
