[Intro]
A A/E (x2)
[Verse 1]
A A/E
When I was younger
D A
I’d struggle at times
E E7
To get out of bed and
D A A/E
At night to unwind
[Verse 2]
A A/E
A dear friend of mine
D A
Gave me some advice
D A
Drink coffee in the morning
E A A7
And whiskey at night
[Chorus]
D
Whiskey can turn
A
A bad day to flowers
E
Be a source of courage
A A7
When you’d rather cower
D
And coffee exposes
A
A bed full of roses
F#m E D
When you can’t seem to do nothing right
F#m E D A A/E
It’s coffee in the morning and whiskey at night
[Verse 3]
A A/E
And as i got older
D A
I’d fuss and I’d fight
E E7
That whiskey will kill you
D A A/E
I said hey man yeah right
[Verse 4]
A A/E
To get rid of those headaches
D A
I had to oblige
D A
In coffee in the morning
E A A7
And whiskey at night
[Chorus]
D
Whiskey can turn
A
A bad day to flowers
E
Be a source of courage
A A7
When you’d rather cower
D
And coffee exposes
A
A bed full of roses
F#m E D
When you can’t seem to do nothing right
F#m E D A A/E
It’s coffee in the morning and whiskey at night
[Verse 5]
A A/E
And now I lay dyin’
D A
It’s the end of my life
E E7
At the foot of my bed
D A A/E
A priest reads me my rights
[Verse 6]
A A/E
I sit up and ask him
D F#m
Hey what’s heaven liii-iii-iiike
D A
Well there’s coffee in the morning
E A A7
And whiskey at night
[Chorus]

Whiskey can turn

A bad day to flowers

When you’d rather cower

And coffee exposes
A
A bed full of roses
