Capo 1
Intro: G Am7 C
G Am7 C
She came from the middle of nowhere
G Am7 C
A sleepy Pennsylvania town
G Am7 C
Her mother held her guilty for so long
G Am7 C
Til she finally put those burdens down
G Am7 C
He spent his whole life on city fair
G Am7 C
His window played the evening sun
G Am7 C
And its hard to believe for such a strong man
G Am7 C
Surely was a lonely one
C Em7
She took the morning shift down town
Am7
slide to Bm7*
It was strange to be his favorite place
C Em7
And after every single customer was cruel enough
D Am7 D
He was the only one to smile and say
Chorus
C G Am7 C
Thank you for the coffee.... a simple conversation
G Am7 C
Thank you for the light shining in your eyes
G
And its taken such a long time
Am7 C
To find someone to talk to
Am7
I know it ain't much
C G Am7/G G Am7/G
But thank you for your time
Am7 C G Am7/G G Am7/G
And it hard to find a kindred soul
Am7 C G Am7/G G Am7/G
And people are so unkind
Am7 C G Am7/G G Am7/G
The little things that drive you crazy
D Am7 D
Stay locked away in your mind
C G Am7 C
So they say Frank and Johnny were lovers
G Am7 C
Just Like Romeo and Juliet
G Am7 C
But time pays no attention to fairy tales
G Am7 C
So love it met the bitter end
C Em7
He went back to his city life
Am7
Bm7*
And Pennsylvania called her name
C Em7
You keep on living and trying to find
D Am7 D
Someone with the time to say
