    A              G         A               A#9 
I'm feelin' mighty lonesome, haven't slept a wink 
  A                    G              A             A9 
I walk the floor and watch the door, in between I drink 
      D9     Dm          Dm6          A     A#9  A  F#7 
Black coffee  love's a hand-me-down broom 
     Bm7          D9     E7       Bm5-/7     A  F#7  Bm7 F7 E7 
I'll never know a Sunday   in this weekday room 
    A              G      A               A#9 
I'm talkin to the shadow one o'clock till four 
     A                  G               A           A9 
And Lord, how slow the moments go when all I do is pour 
      D9     Dm            Dm6             A    A#9  A  F#7 
Black coffee    since the blues caught my eye 
    Bm7             D9    E7          Bm5-/7      A  G#7 G7 F#7 F7 E7 A 
I'm hangin' out on Monday   my Sunday dreams to dry 

Bridge:

A#9 Dm Dm7 A Now man is born to come alovin' Dm Dm7 Gdim A And a woman's born to weep and fret F7 A# To stay at home and tend her oven F7 Gdim F7 E7 Fdim E7 And drown her past regrets in coffee and cigarettes A G A A#9 I'm moonin' all the mornin', moanin' all the night A G A A9 And in between it's nicotine and not much heart to fight D9 Dm Dm6 A A#9 A Black coffee feelin' low as the ground C#7 G7 F#7 D9 Bm5-/7 E7 It's drivin' me crazy, this waitin' for my baby Fdim E7 Bm5-/7 A F#7 Bm7 E7 Fdim A F#7 Bm7 F7 E7 A 'Til he come around, 'til he come around
