"Ballad of the Sad Cafe" from the Calobo album "Runnin' in the River" Brought to you by Mike Schweisthal ([email protected])

Notes: I'm not certain that these lyrics are entirely correct, but the Chords are pretty solid (my dad helped me with this one, I believe...) If You know how to do hammer-ons and pull-offs with G and C chords, I Recommend messing around with them a bit--it sounds really nice with this Song. A '|' denotes a measure break.

Chords Used:

EADGBE C: Am:

I'm looking out my window And I see the falling rain And I can't say what I don't know But I know I can't stand the pain

All my days are gone. . .looking for a new way. . .to find my rose And so the story goes. . .the ballad of the sad cafe. . . C | G | G | C | C | The ballad of the sad cafe

And I put on my walking shoes To find a face that I can't see And I find the bottle and the blues You know this ain't my cup of tea

All my days are gone. . .looking for a new way. . .to find my rose And so the story goes...

INSTRUMENTAL: | G | G | C | C | G | G | C | C |

And I know I'm gonna find her. . .somehow in my own sweet way In the ballad of the sad cafe. . .the ballad of the sad cafe

I'm looking out my window And all I love is empty space And I can't see what I don't know But I'd love to find your face

All my days are gone. . .looking for a new way. . .to find my rose So the story goes. . .the ballad of the sad cafe. . . C | G | G | C | C | The ballad of the sad cafe...
