Ok... the entire song is relatively easy to play, seeing as it's only two chords. An acoustic guitar is used 
and sounds best obviously after being just restrung. The Chords are E and C.
 
E~~ 022100
C-- 032010
 
Intro-
 
E-0-0-0-0-----0-0-0-0----------------------------------

Lyrics-
She smelled like flowers, she tastes like toffee
She kissed me slowly, she held me softly
Got too close and she backed up off me
Left me stoned cold sober, just like black coffee
Just like black coffee
She told me that she'd always be thinkin' of me
She said she wanted me to know that she really did love me
She said she never put no one else above me
Except her monkey, she's like a junkie, just like a junkie,
Just like a junkie
 
It was April 25th, it's up around 80
Found a spot out in the park where the grass is shady
She said her mom's from Jamaica, her father's from Haiti
She's such a pretty lady, she's such a lady
 
Chorus
 
She smelled like flowers, she tastes like toffee
She kissed me slowly, she held me softly
Got too close and she backed up off me
Left me stoned cold sober, just like black coffee
Just like black coffee, just like black coffee
Just like black coffee
 
 
listen to the song for the strumming pattern. Play E and sing until basically the last word, then switch to C 
and finish it out. Just listen to the song,you'll know what i'm talkin about

It is really easy and if you throw in a stand alone bend on the Top E string 3 fret it caps the whole song off
