[Intro] D Em D A D [Verse 1]
D                                   G                    D
I'm on my second cup of coffee and I still can't face the day

D                  F#m          G              A
I'm thinking of the lady who got lost along the way

       D                                   Em               G
And if I don't stop this trembling hand from reaching for the phone

       D                                A               D
I'll be reaching for the bottle Lord, before this day is done
[Verse 2]
D                                   G                    D
I'm on my second cup of coffee and I still can't face the day

D                         F#m        G                A
The room was filled with laughs as we sang the night away

       D                                 Em                   G
But my sleep was filled with dreaming of the wrongs that I have done

       D                                A         D
And the gentle sweet reminder of a daughter and a son
[Chorus]
G                 D
Sitting alone, my friends have all gone home

                                         A
You never know when they'll come dropping in

G                           D
Thinking of girls with their fingers in my curls

                                   A
Too young to understand how love begins
[Verse 3]
D                                   G                    D
I'm on my second cup of coffee and I still can't face the dawn

             F#m         G          A
The radio is playing a soft country song

      D                                     Em                G
And if I don't stop this trembling hand from reaching for the phone

       D                               A                D
I'll be reaching for the bottle Lord, before this day is done
[Instrumental] D Em G D A D [Chorus]
G                 D
Sitting alone, my friends have all gone home

                                     A
They never were around when I needed them

G                           D
Thinking of girls with their fingers in my curls

                                   A
Too young to understand how love begins
[Verse 4]
D                                   G                    D
I'm on my second cup of Coffee and I still can't face the day

D                  F#m          G              A
I'm thinking of the lady who got lost along the way

       D                                   Em               G
And if I don't stop this trembling hand from reaching for the phone

       D                 G               A               D
I'll be reaching for the bottle Lord, before this day is done

 D                                   Em               G
And if I don't stop this trembling hand from reaching for the phone

       D                  G              A               D
I'll be reaching for the bottle Lord, before this day is done
