There's a stain on my notebook where your coffee cup was
uitar igure 1
And there's ash in the pages, now I've got myself lost
uitar igure 1
I was writing to tell you that my feelings tonight
uitar igure 1
Are a stain on my notebook that rings your goodbye.

Oh, now she's gone, and I'm back on the beat
A stain on my notebook says nothing to me.
Oh, now she's gone and I'm out with a friend (out with a friend)
With lips full of passion and coffee in bed
px2y uitar igure 1
VERSE2:
uitar igure 1
With the way that you left me I could hardly contain
uitar igure 1
The hurt and the anger and the joy of the pain
uitar igure 1
Now knowing I am single there'll be fire in my eyes
uitar igure 1
And a stain on my notebook for a new love tonight
repeat HORUS

uitar SOLO over:
In the F section, the is a triple hammer-on played on the second beat.
But, on the 3rd beat, you're already playing the F-note on the 3rd string.
I can't show it any other way without making it look sillier than it probably
already is.

Now she's gone (now she's gone)
and I'm out with a friend (out with a friend)
With lips full of passion and coffee in bed

VERSE3:
From lips without passion to the lips with a kiss
There's nothing of your love that I'll ever miss
The stain on my notebook remains all that's left
Of the memory of late nights and coffee in bed
Of the memory of late nights and coffee in bed
repeat HORUS1 and ad lib bits from VRS to fade
"A stain on my notebook..."
"With lips full of passion..."
etc. etc.
