I wrote this song with a capo on the 2nd fret but you can adapt this to suit your voice :)
Verse 1:
G D Em C
His father used to say, 'What'l it be.. tea or coffee?'
G D Em C
'One day we'll be far away, on a beach with girls and lots of money'(He said)
G D
'Son one day, we'll be just fine'
Em C
But now he's locked up serving six years nine
Pre-chorus:
G D
And now the kid sits at home plays guitar all day
Em C
With his best mate Stella and a spliff to blaze. (Singin')
Chorus. (Strumming pattern: Down, down, up, up, down, up,)
G D
One day, we'll be just fine
Em C
Maybe further down the line (Singin')
G D
One day, we'll be ok..
Em C
One day.. Just not today.
Verse 2:
Now the kid gets a house and moves in with his bird
But then she starts cheating or thats what he's heard
Things didnt go quite as smoothly as planned
and the kid runs away to... Amsterdam.
He smokes high grade till the cows come home
But when he gets back he's still all alone.
Pre-chorus.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Chorus.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Verse 3:
Now he cant change the past 'cause what's done is done
But he just cant seem to get off square one
All of his mates have got hobs and grown up
But he still more messed up than '2 girls and 1 cup'
A couple years later turns his whole life around
Gets a job sorted and his feet on the ground
Last Pre-chorus:
While his dad's locked up in his cell all day
With not much to and not much to say thinkin'..
Chorus.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Outro.
His father used to say.. 'What'l it be, tea or coffee?'
Thanks for looking at my tab :)
