"Coffee and Wine" Lyrics:

Tommy you know he had one deaf ear

Back from his minesweeping days

You never could tell just what he could and could not hear

And he intended to keep it that way

He joined the Navy just like his daddy done

When he was of the rightful age

He took off right quick like many a kid did

When his parents took hard to the drink

And now it's coffee like it's fine wine, wine like it's water

Anytime's a good time so go unlock your daughters

With his motorcycle friends and going off again

From the Black Sea all the way to Britain (all the way to Britain)

She was a dame of New Jersey fame

Lived her life like it was a Bourre game

And if there were sides being taken

You better believe you want to be on the side she was on

She went to the city for secretary school

Ended up working for the CIA

She had a shorthand that didn't suffer no fools

She intended to keep it that way

And she drink coffee like it's fine wine, wine like it's water

Any old time she could ride any horse she wanted

And if you gonna ride it, then you ride it like you stole it from a steeple chase

She drink coffee like it's fine wine, wine like it's water

Boys would try give chase but no one ever caught her

Till she found her love and Sheila didn't let Tommy sleep for days

Their first meeting was hardly a word

But he built her a harpsichord

He found her unconscious just inside the door

And carried her to help

Now every now and again

She pretends to faint on the harpsichord bench

And he picks her up again

And carries her up to their bed

And they drink coffee like it's fine wine, wine like it's water

Anytime's a good time cause now they have a daughter

And she rides so fast, they said they going to name her Farley

They drink coffee like it's fine wine, wine like it's water

Don't ask what kind it's just the kind our parents brought us

From the Black Sea shore and the girl next door who could ride

And they drink coffee like it's fine wine, wine like it's water

Anytime's a good time cause now they have a daughter

And she rides so fast, they said they going to name her Farley

They drink coffee like it's fine wine, wine like it's water

Don't ask what kind it's just the kind our parents brought us

From the Black Sea shore and the girl next door who could ride

@keystonedking Let it Go was possibly Chad's strongest album -- it's certainly by favorite. The songs aren't as poppy, but they have a beautiful and distinct sound with strong lyrics. I've heard most new listeners not really enjoy it, but most of the really strong SR fans say they loved it.

On my radio station, they play this every day at exactly the same time, which is also right when I'm driving to school with my dad. We both sing this at the top of our lungs and get weird looks from people, but it's fun!

Think I worked out the chords. Verse: Em-G-Am-Em. Em-G-Am-Em. G-C-G-D. Em-G-D-C. Chorus: Em-G-D-C (End chorus on Em). Interlude before bridge: G-D-C. Bridge: C-G-D-C. C-G-D. (some other quick changes in there, but those are the basics). Enjoy! Def one of Chad's best.
