[Verse 1]

Am
Your breath is sweet, your eyes are like
    G
Two jewels in the sky
F
Your back is straight your hair is smooth
       E
On the pillow where you lie
Am
But I don't sense affection
   G
No gratitude or love
F                             E
Your loyalty is not to me but to the stars above


[Chorus]

F                              E
One more cup of coffee for the road
F                              E
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go
N.C.            Am     G F E
To the valley below


[Verse 2]

Am
Your daddy he's an outlaw
      G
And a wanderer by trade
F
He'll teach you how to pick an choose
E
And how to throw the blade
Am
And he oversees his kingdom
   G
So no stranger does intrude
   F
His voice it trembles as he calls out
E
For another plate of food


[Chorus]

F                              E
One more cup of coffee for the road
F                              E
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go
N.C.            Am     G F E
To the valley below


[Verse 3]

Am
Your sister sees the future
         G
Like your momma and yourself
      F
You've never learned to read or write
       E
There's no books upon your shelf
       Am
And your pleasure knows no limits
         G
Your voice is like a meadow larks
    F
But your heart is like an ocean
  E
Mysterious and dark


[Chorus]

F                              E
One more cup of coffee for the road
F                              E
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go
N.C.            Am     G F E
To the valley below
