The Coffee Song Frank Sinatra
[Verse 1]
[D7]Way [G]down among Br[Ddim]azilians
Coffee b[Am7]eans grow by the [D7]billions
So they've [G]got to find those [Em]extra cups to [A7]fill
They've got an a[Am7]wful lot of c[D7]offee in B[G]razil[D7]
[Verse 2]
You[G] can't get ch[Ddim]erry soda
'cause t[Am7]hey've got to fil[D7]l that quota
And the way[G] things are I'll b[Em]et they never [A7]will
They've got a zi[Am7]llion tons of[D7] coffee in[G] Brazil
[Cborus]
[Ddim]No te[Am7]a or[D7] to[G]mato juice
[Ddim]You'l[Am7]l se[D7]e n[G]o potato juice
[E7]'cause the [Am]planters down in[E7] Santos all say [A7]"No, no,[D7] no"
[Verse 3]
The[G] politician's[Ddim] daughter
Wa[Am7]s accused of drin[D7]kin' water
And was fin[G]ed a great big fif[Em]ty dollar bill[A7]
They've got an a[Am7]wful lot of c[D7]offee in B[G]razil[D7]
[instrumental break]
[Verse 4]
You[G] date a girl [Ddim]and find out later
Sh[Am7]e smells just lik[D7]e a percolator
Her perfume[G] was made right on[Em] the grill[A7]
Why, they could [Am7]percolate the[D7] ocean in [G]Brazil[D7]
[Verse 5]
And[G] when their h[Ddim]am and eggs need savor
Co[Am7]ffee ketchup give[D7]s 'em flavor
Coffee pick[G]les way outsell th[Em]e dill[A7]
Why, they put co[Am7]ffee in the c[D7]offee in B[G]razil
[Cborus]
[Ddim]No te[Am7]a, n[D7]o t[G]omato juice
[Ddim]You'l[Am7]l se[D7]e n[G]o potato juice
[E7]The planter[Am]s down in Santos[E7] all say "No, no[A7], no"G [D7] Ddim
So you'll add to the local color
Se[Am7]rving coffee with[D7] a cruller
Dunkin' doe[G]sn't take a lot of[Em] skill[A7]
They've got an a[Am7]wful lot of c[D7]offee
An [A]awful lot of c[D7]offee
Man, they got a [Am7]gang of coffe[D7]e in Brazi[G]l!!
