Misc Originals – Alana Brezenski - Coffee Not Tequila (Guitar)

  D                   G
She came up to me, walking to my car

C                           D
I just finished a 3 hour set, in a rowdy biker bar

D                           G
She said I like your music and the way you play

C                          D
I said is that all ….that you stopped me to say

D                              G
I been with her every night… since that day

C                G                   D
Now…she is the only reason….that I play

D               G
Now the bars don’t seem as lonely

C                           D
And the roads dont seem as long

D                   G
Got a little more spring in my step

C                       D        C
And higher notes in my songs

Am                    C
Til one day she stumbled

Em                G
And fell to her knees

Am               C
She said please hold my hand

Em                    G
There is something wrong with me

Am                       C
An when she left the doctor

Em                   G
Tears fell from her eyes

Am                      C
And I don’t know what happened to me

Em               G
Guess I am too numb to cry

Am              C
Now my life is not the same

Em                 G
And she needs to know I care

Am           C
Now I only play at home

Em                 Asus2
I’m not going anywhere

Em                        G               Em
I drink more coffee now….than shots of Tequila

Em                  G                              Em
Sunrise replaces…. Playing in dim lit bars and cantinas

C                         F              Asus2
And I don’t mind losing …the calluses …. On my fingers

F              Asus2     F                              Asus2
Now I play…..my guitar….for the one at home who really needs me

G           C      G           C
And I need her…   And I need her
