[Intro]
D Em D A D
 
[Verse 1]
D                                   G                    D
I'm on my second cup of coffee and I still can't face the day
D                  F#m          G              A
I'm thinking of the lady who got lost along the way
       D                                   Em               G
And if I don't stop this trembling hand from reaching for the phone
       D                                A               D
I'll be reaching for the bottle Lord, before this day is done
 
[Verse 2]
D                                   G                    D
I'm on my second cup of coffee and I still can't face the day
D                         F#m        G                A
The room was filled with laughs as we sang the night away
       D                                 Em                   G
But my sleep was filled with dreaming of the wrongs that I have done
       D                                A         D
And the gentle sweet reminder of a daughter and a son
 
[Chorus]
G                 D
Sitting alone, my friends have all gone home
                                         A
You never know when they'll come dropping in
G                           D
Thinking of girls with their fingers in my curls
                                   A
Too young to understand how love begins
 
[Verse 3]
D                                   G                    D
I'm on my second cup of coffee and I still can't face the dawn
             F#m         G          A
The radio is playing a soft country song
      D                                     Em                G
And if I don't stop this trembling hand from reaching for the phone
       D                               A                D
I'll be reaching for the bottle Lord, before this day is done
 
[Instrumental]
D Em G D A D
 
[Chorus]
G                 D
Sitting alone, my friends have all gone home
                                     A
They never were around when I needed them
G                           D
Thinking of girls with their fingers in my curls
                                   A
Too young to understand how love begins
 
[Verse 4]
D                                   G                    D
I'm on my second cup of Coffee and I still can't face the day
D                  F#m          G              A
I'm thinking of the lady who got lost along the way
       D                                   Em               G
And if I don't stop this trembling hand from reaching for the phone
       D                 G               A               D
I'll be reaching for the bottle Lord, before this day is done
 D                                   Em               G
And if I don't stop this trembling hand from reaching for the phone
       D                  G              A               D
I'll be reaching for the bottle Lord, before this day is done
