Taylor the Latte Boy: Kristin Chenoweth
Tabbed by Robin Young
(E)
Amaj7
There's a boy who works at Starbucks
D6/A
Who is very inspirational
Bm7 D/E Amaj7 D/E
He is very inspirational because of many things
Amaj7 D6/A
I come in at 8:11, and he smiles and says, "How are you?"
Bm7
When he smiles and says, "How are you?"
Bm7 E7 C#7
I could swear my heart grows wings
F#7
So today at 8:11
G/A
I decided I should meet him
Dmaj7
I decided I should meet him
G7
In a proper, formal way
F#7 G/A
So today at 8:11 when he smiled and said "How are you?"
Dmaj7
I said "Fine, and my name’s Kristin"
Bm7 D/E C#7
And he softly answered, "Hey"
F#7
And I said "My name is Kristen,
A/E F#m/D# Fmaj7 G7
And thank you for the extra foam"
A/E
And he said his name was Taylor,
D6/E D/A Amaj7 D/A Amaj7
Which provides the inspiration for this poem
Amaj7 C#7 Dmaj7
Taylor, the latte boy
Bm7 A/C# Dmaj7 D/E Db7/F
Bring me java, bring me joy
F#m7 Amaj7/E B/D#
Oh, Taylor, the latte boy
A/E D/E D/A A F7sus
I love him, I love him, I love him
[MODULATION]
Bbmaj7
So I’d like to get my nerve up
Eb/Bb
To recite my poem musical
Cm7
He would like the fact it’s musical
F7sus Bbmaj7 F7sus
Because he plays guitar
Bbmaj7 Eb/Bb
So today at 8:11, Taylor told me he was playing
Cm7 Cm7 F7 D7/F#
In a band down in the village in the basement of a bar
Gm7 Bb7sus
And he smoothly flipped the lever to prepare my double latte
Ebmaj7 Ab7
But for me he made it triple, and he didn’t think I knew
Gm7 Bb7sus
But I saw him flip the lever, and for me he made it triple
Ebmaj7 Cm7 F7sus D7
And I knew that triple latte meant that Taylor loved me too
Gm7
I said, "What time are you playing?
Em7b5 Ebm7 Ab7
And thank you for the extra skim"
Bb/F
He said, "Keep the $3.55,"
F7sus F7 Eb/Bb Bbmaj7 Eb/Bb Bbmaj7
Because this triple latte was on him
Bbmaj7 D7 Ebmaj7 Dm7
Taylor, the latte boy
Cm7 Bb/D Eb Eb/F D7
Bring me java, bring me joy
Gm7 Gm7/F C7/E
Oh, Taylor, the latte boy,
Bb/F Eb/F Eb/Bb Bbmaj7
I love him, I love him, I love him
D7sus D7 Gm7 C7sus C7 Fmaj7
I used to be the kind of girl who'd run when love rushed toward her
D7sus D7 Gm7
But finally a voice whispered "Love can be yours
C7sus C7 F7sus F7
If you step up to the counter and order"
Bbmaj7 D7 Ebmaj7 Dm7
Taylor, the latte boy
Cm7 Bb/D Eb Eb/F D7
Bring me java, bring me joy
Gm7 Gm7/F C7/E
Oh, Taylor, the latte boy,
Bb/F Eb/F Eb/Bb Bbmaj7
I love him, I love him, I love him
Ebmaj7 Eb6 Dm7 Bb/D
So many years my heart has waited
D7 A7/E D7/F# Gm7 Gm7/F Edim Ebm7
Who’d have thought that love could be so caffeinated?
Bb/F D7/F# Gm7 C7
Taylor, the latte boy
Bb/F F7sus D7/F# Gm7
I love him, I love him, I love him
C7 Bb/F F7sus Eb/Bb Bb Eb/Bb Bb Eb/Bb Ebm7/Bb Bb
I love him, I love him, I love him
