Second Cup Of Coffee Chords

Capo 4
With the exception of the instrumental intro and break, most of the song can be played by Travis picking
using the root and top (e) string.
 
[Intro]
C C F F C C G C
 
[Verse 1]
          C             /            F                    C          /
I'm on my second cup of coffee and I still can't face the day
    C               Em           F              G          /
I'm thinking of the lady who got lost along the way
       C                 /                   Dm               F
And if I don't stop this trembling hand from reaching for the phone
        C                /             G                  C          /
I'll be reachin' for the bottle, Lord, before this day is done
 
[Verse 2]
          C             /            F                    C          /
I'm on my second cup of coffee and I still can't face the day
    /                    Em           F                G          /
The room was filled with laughs as we danced the night away
       C                     /               Dm                F
But my sleep was filled with dreaming of the wrongs that I had done
        C            /             G              C          /
And the gentle sweet reminder of a daughter and a son
 
[Chorus]
F       /         C                     /
Sitting alone, my friends have all gone home
/                   /                     G          /
You never know when they'll come droppin' in
F           /                C             /
Thinking of girls with their fingers in my curls
/                 /              G         N.C.
Too young to understand how love begins
 
[Verse 3]
          C             /            F                    C          /
I'm on my second cup of coffee and I still can't face the dawn
    C        Em        F            G          /
The radio is playin' a soft country song
       C                 /                   Dm               F
And if I don't stop this trembling hand from reaching for the phone
        C                /             G                  C          /
I'll be reachin' for the bottle, Lord, before this day is done
 
[Instrumental]
C C F F C C G C
 
[Chorus]
F       /         C                     /
Sitting alone, my friends have all gone home
/               /                    G          /
They never were around when I needed them
F           /                C             /
Thinking of girls with their fingers in my curls
/                 /              G         N.C.
Too young to understand how love begins
 
[Verse]
          C             /            F                    C          /
I'm on my second cup of coffee and I still can't face the day
    C               Em           F              G          /
I'm thinking of the lady who got lost along the way
       C                 /                   Dm               F
And if I don't stop this trembling hand from reaching for the phone
        C                /             G                  C          /
I'll be reachin' for the bottle, Lord, before this day is done
