Coffee And Cigarettes

G Bm Em A


[Verse 1]
           G
It was the summer before our senior year
      Bm
I was packing up my life in an Econoline
                     Em
While she was trying dresses on and playing house
A
Standing in the drive to watch me backing out
      G
I got home before September starts to catch a chill
           Bm
We sat and talked about how much we both have changed
            Em
I've been a bad boy, too late to go back then
A
Maybe someday we can end up as friends

           G
And theres so many things I can't believe,
Bm
well I can't believe
        Em                 A
we were seventeen, we were seventeen
            G
And now I'm lost at the drive I'm lost in the car
Bm
Guess when you lose someone you find out who you are
Em                                      A
Now I'm rolled up, broken in and moving along, I'm moving along


[Chorus]
              G        Bm
But all I got left, is coffee and cigarettes
Em                               A
Mixtapes on old cassettes, and a picture that you put in a letter
             G
You were the best
    Bm                    Em
The best that I ever had, baby you got me bad
           A
You always said that you would wait forever
               G                       Bm
And now you're gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
       Em     A
You're gone


[Verse 2]
            G
I heard she met someone in college, looks a bit like me
Bm                                                            Em
Moved back to Boston for her law degree, while I was stamping postcards, a summer song
A
I think about her when the television's on
       G
I went back for the reunion and we reminicsed
        Bm
She had on sensible shoes and said
                                         Em
"It's good to see you're still the guy I used to know"
                         A
And then a breath, and a sideways hug that I could not forget

           G
And theres so many things I can't believe,
Bm
well I can't believe
        Em                 A
we were seventeen, we were seventeen
            G
And now I'm lost at the motel, I'm lost in the bar
Bm
And looking back at, And looking back at her is still the hardest part
      Em                           A
Gotta let go, let go, start moving along, moving along


[Chorus]
              G        Bm
But all I got left, is coffee and cigarettes
Em                               A
Mixtapes on old cassettes, and a picture that you put in a letter
             G
You were the best
    Bm                    Em
The best that I ever had, baby you got me bad
           A
You always said that you would wait forever
               G                       Bm
And now you're gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
       Em     A
You're gone
               G                       Bm
And now you're gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
       Em     A
You're gone

              G        Bm
And all I got left, is coffee and cigarettes
Em       A
