[Intro]

Am Am G F E
Am G F E
Am Am


[Verse 1]

     Am
Your breath is sweet, your eyes are like
G
Two jewels in the sky
F
Your back is straight, your hair is smooth
       E
On the pillow where you lie
Am
But I don't sense affection
G
No gratitude or love
F                            E
Your loyalty is not to me but to the stars above


[Chorus]

F                              E
One more cup of coffee for the road
F                              E
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go
N.C.            Am     G F E
To the valley below


[Verse 2]

     Am
Your daddy he's an outlaw
      G
And a wanderer by trade
F
He'll teach you how to pick an' choose
    E
And how to throw the blade
Am
   He oversees his kingdom
G
So no stranger does intrude
F
His voice it trembles as he calls out
     E
For another plate of food


[Chorus]

F                              E
One more cup of coffee for the road
F                              E
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go
N.C.            Am     G F E
To the valley below


[Verse 3]

     Am
Your sister sees the future
G
Like your momma and yourself
F
You've never learned to read or write
        E
There's no books upon your shelf
    Am
And your pleasure knows no limits
     G
Your voice is like a meadow lark
       F
But your heart is like an ocean
E
Mysterious and dark


[Chorus]

F                              E
One more cup of coffee for the road
F                              E
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go
N.C.            Am     G F E
To the valley below
