Decent Cup Of Coffee

Written by Mick Thomas

	  		G                           Em  
These are the thoughts of a young man  
           Am 
Driving an old car  
          Dm  
Leaving a small town in  
    Eb               Bb 
The winter time on a Saturday evening 
C  
Eyes for the bright lights 
Cm              D7  
Not for his old flame...  
 
     G 
Your kids they clapped politely at the finish of my song  
    C 
You said "I think they liked it" but they hardly sang along  
    G 
You said "I think it's great you came and played  
                              D 
We don't get much around this place  
                          C 
And it's good to see your face"  
       G 
Well I said it was a good excuse to get out of the city 
         C 
I'd been kicking up my heels a bit, you didn't show much pitty 
    G 
You said, "I finish work at four  
                                   D 
I'll take you up the Top Pub for a counter meal 
               C 
I said "it's a deal, I'll have the veal"  
 
(chorus) 
      Am            C               G 
But a decent cup of coffee wouldn't go astray  
        Am                C               G 
But somehow 1 don't think I'll be getting it today  
BM             C 
You say living here's just fine 
     Bm            C 
Each to their own, I for mine  
BM              C              D 
You're the only reason I would hang around  
         C   Cb   Am                         G 
When the sun goes down, in a dust red Mallee town  
 
     G 
Your friends said to say hello and to tell you that they've missed you  
       C 
I know they'll he waiting eagerly to find out if I've kissed you  
    G 
And though I think I'd like to, I'm not sure if there's another  
           D 
I'd better watch my end  
                          C 
Though you said "Ahh he's just a friend"  
        G 
So I'll see if there's a room here at the pub it's getting late  
          C 
And I can see you in the morning I will meet you at the front gate of  
    G 
The local footy ground you said "it's hardly Moorabbin"  
              D         
I said "Don't be a bore,  
                  C 
No one plays down there no more"  
 
(chorus) 
 
          G 
Well it's good to see the home team won, your friend he plays a good game  
        C       
I think I'll be pushing off now you know it's not such a great shame  
           G    
But as the sun sets on The Grampians  
           			       D 
Oh how I'd wish you'd whisper "I still love you true"  
                    C    Cb   Am 
Then I would say "I love you too"  
 
 
(but ...  
  Am            C               G 
A decent cup of coffee wouldn't go astray  
       Am              C                G 
And if I make tracks I might be tasting one today  
        Bm              C 
Well to live without me seems you're fine  
BM             C 
You for yours, I for mine  
BM             C             D 
I just lost my one reason to hang around  
         C   Cb   Am             C   Cb   Am  
When the sun goes down, When the sun goes down,  
         C   Cb   Am                       
When the sun goes down,  
                     G 
On a dust red Mallee town
