Written in 1995 and finished 30 years later. Laura and I used to go to Billy’s Fish bar in Bexleyheath where we’d chat for ages. She still fancies me.
Verse 1: A Asus4 Asus2 A Asus4 Asus2
We got talking (high), you talked a lot (high)
Sipping coffee (high), Billy’s coffee shop (low)
E D (Dm) Asus4 A
Oh (Oh you know) that coffee shop
Verse 2: A Asus4 Asus2 A Asus4 Asus2
Stood beside me (high) through it all (high)
Lived a lifetime (high) just to write a song (low)
Oh (Oh you know) that coffee shop
—————-CHORUS—-A Bm D Asus4 A————-
Babe, it was all a game
Played better than them
Decades of crazy (low)
Maybe we should play it again
Drop the shame
Doing it our way (high)
—————————————-
Oh (Oh you know) that coffee shop
Verse 3:
We learned the lessons (high), sometimes raw (high)
Still with each other (high), when we fall (low)
Oh (Oh you know) that coffee shop
—————-CHORUS x 2—————–
Oh (Oh you know) that coffee…
—————-CHORUS x 2—————–
E D (Dm) Asus4 A
Oh (Oh you know) that coffee shop
Oh (Oh you know) that coffee shop (low)
Hang on the Asus4 to end
This is how it sounded in 1995
