[Am]Your breath is sweet
Your eyes are like two[G] jewels in the sky
Your[F] back is straight, your hair is smooth
On the[E] pillow where you lie.
But[Am] I don't sense affection
No[G] gratitude or love
Your[F] loyalty is not to me
But[E] to the stars above.
[F]One more cup of coffee for the[E] road,
[F]One more cup of coffee 'fore I[E] go
To the valley be[Am]low.
Your[Am] daddy he's an outlaw
And a wanderer by[G] trade
He'll[F] teach you how to pick and choose
And[E] how to throw the blade.
He[Am] oversees his kingdom
So no [G]stranger does intrude
His[F] voice it trembles as he calls out
For a[E]nother plate of food.
[F]One more cup of coffee for the[E] road,
[F]One more cup of coffee 'fore I[E] go
To the valley be[Am]low.
Your[Am] sister sees the future
Like your mama[G] and yourself.
You've[F] never learned to read or write
There's no[E] books upon your shelf.
And your[Am] pleasure knows no limits
Your voice is[G] like a meadowlark
But your[F] heart is like an ocean
My[E]sterious and dark.
[F]One more cup of coffee for the[E] road,
[F]One more cup of coffee 'fore I[E] go
To the valley be[Am]low.
