Am G F E

[Verse 1]
Am
 Your breath is sweet, your eyes are
G
like 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
 Your loyalty is not to me
    E
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
                   (Am)
To the valley below

[Interlude]
Am  G  F  E  (2x)

[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
How to throw the blade
Am
 He oversees his kingdom
   G
So no stranger does intrude
F
His voice it trembles as he creeps
     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
                   (Am)
To the valley below

[Solo]
Am  G  F  E  (2x)

[Verse 3]
     Am
Your sister sees the future
G
Like your momma and yourself
F
 You never learned to read or write
           E
There's no books upon your shelf
Am
 And you pleasure knows no limits
G
Your voice is like a meadow lark
F
But your mind 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
                   (Am)
To the valley below

[Sax Solo]
Am  G  F  E  (4x)

[Chorus]
F                              E
One more cup of coffee for the road
F                              E
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go
                   Am
To the valley below
