Intro: F Dm A# Verse 1:

       F
When I finally finished school

           Dm                    A#
It was the first thing that I did

     F                    
What every townie kid dreams of,

     Dm              A#
I packed and started west

     F          
A thousand dollars I had saved

       Dm              A#
And my sister's two cassettes:

    F
The Dead from Fillmore East

         Dm                     A#    
And Otis Redding's Greatest Hits

Chorus:

C           Dm  A#
Coffee and Cigarettes

C         Dm    A#
As simple as it gets

C                   Dm             A#
Of all the things I think I'll miss,

C      
There's staying up with you

            Dm
Coffee and Cigarettes

            A#
Coffee and Cigarettes

Prelude: F Dm A# Verse 2:

F   
Then, I commit with some restraint

     Dm                  A#
To a boy I thought might care

    F             
It didn't work but I found out soon

    Dm              A#
And never dug roots there

F  
Been a lot of places since

    Dm             A#
But nothing else compares

   F
To easy times and easy eyes

    Dm            A#
To meet you in a stare

Chorus:

C           Dm  A#
Coffee and Cigarettes

C         Dm    A#
As simple as it gets

C                   Dm             A#
Of all the things I think I'll miss,

C      
There's staying up with you

            Dm
Coffee and Cigarettes

            A#
Coffee and Cigarettes

     F                    
What every townie kid dreams of,

     Dm              A#
I packed and started west
