Lyrics
Intro: (Bb) (C) (F)
(Bb) The day cannot start without it
It's (F) like some essential need
It (C) even takes true preference
(F) Over the desire to feed
You can (Bb) keep your glass of water
Or your (F) nice warm cup of tea
The (C) only thing I need in the morning
Is a (Bb) huge mug (C) of cof(F)fee
CHORUS
(Dm) Without it I'm a zombie
First (C) thing when I awake
(Dm) Drifting through the morning
Like I've (C) still got on the brakes
I ad(Bb)mit I'm a coffee junkie
And I (F) know that I should stop
But at (C) least one thing about my vice
You can (Bb) buy it in the (C) local (F) shop
I tried (Bb) cutting down on my addiction
Through a (F) diet of decaff
But my (C) cravings for that caffeine
Were no (F) matter for a laugh
I (Bb) thought my head would explode
With that (F) withdrawal migraine
So I (C) went back to real coffee
And poured the (Bb) substitute (C) down the (F) drain
CHORUS
So don't (Bb) ask if I can do without it
Do you (F) want me to go mad?
De(C)void of that delightful aroma
My (F) life would be rather sad
So I'm (Bb) going to continue drinking
That (F) nectar of the gods
As for (C) those not into coffee
I (Bb) pity (C) the poor (F) sods
