The Band – Java Blues (Guitar)

G7
Stopped by a diner, and the blond behind the counter

G7
Asked if she could help in any way.

        C
I could tell by her smile, her number I could dial

G
If I was in the need of company.

  D7
I asked her for some Java

  C                    G
Instead she brought me chickory.

G7
A taste of Java, is like a volcanic rush

G7
Nobody's gonna stop me from drinkin too much.

      C
Costs many more than you care to pay

    G
But money is nothin, compared to a fired-up day.

      D7
Don't try to cheat, it's impossible to beat

    C                              G
The only pick-me-up that's here to stay.

G
Java Blues, coffee's got me

G
Java Blues, coffee coffee coffee

     C
Java Blues, well the coffee's got me

     G

    D
You know that I'll stay high

        C
Drinkin coffee till I die

     G
Java blues

         G
Won't you boil me water, fill up my cup.

     G
You know it takes a lot to keep me up.

          C
Down in Bolivia, the people are insane

     G
They want as much for Java as they do for cocaine.

D7
Don't try to cheat, it's impossible to beat

    C                              G
The only pick-me-up that's here to stay.

G

G

    D
