C Dm F
[Verse 1]
C Dm
At a little canteen south of the border
F
Bartender messed up an order
C Dm F
She got my jose, I got her wine, I said I’ll buy 'em both this time
C Dm F
If you dance with me in this blue moonlight and that turned into the rest of the night
C Dm F
Like shells in the waves, she swept me away and for a minute we had it made
[Pre-Chorus]
Am G
Sunrise came way too fast
F
She had a stateside plane to catch
Am G F
And I still don’t know where those silver wings took her
[Chorus]
C Dm
Her name was sugar, she taste so sweet
F
In with the tide and out with the breeze
C Dm
Kinda high makes you weak in the knees
F
Right down to your soul
C Dm F
She’s a d**n good looker, with her bleach blonde hair, those ocean eyes could be anywhere
C Dm F
But it’s lookin’ like I’ll never know
C Dm F
Mmm, and that memory still comes and goes
C Dm F
Oh her name was sugar (So sweet)
[Verse 2]
C Dm
By the end of the night my phone had died
F
She either wrote it down wrong or straight up lied
C Dm F
Either way that was our first and only time
C Dm
And I wonder where she went back home to
F
Is she with someone or all alone too
C Dm F
All I got to go on’s this one clue
[Chorus]
C Dm
Oh, her name was sugar, she taste so sweet
F
In with the tide and out with the breeze
C Dm
Kinda high makes you weak in the knees
F
Right down to your soul
C Dm F
She’s a d**n good looker, with her bleach blonde hair, those ocean eyes could be anywhere
C Dm F
But it’s lookin’ like I’ll never know
C Dm F
Mmm, and that memory still comes and goes
C Dm F
Oh her name was sugar (So sweet)
[Post-Chorus]
C Dm F
(So sweet)
[Verse 3]
C Dm F
Maybe I’ll fly back for the h**l of it
C
Find that barstool and just settle in
Dm F
That red one right there at the end
F
Get drunk and pray she walks in again
[Chorus]
C Dm
Sugar, sweet like it sounds
F
Salt life t-shirt laying on the ground
C Dm F
I ain’t forgot that pink flamingo tattoo way on down
C Dm F
She’s a d**n good looker, with her bleach blonde hair, those ocean eyes could be anywhere
C Dm F
But it’s lookin’ like I’ll never know
C Dm F
Mmm, and that memory still comes and goes
C Dm F
Oh her name was sugar (So sweet)
[Outro]
C Dm F
Her name was sugar, (so sweet)
C Dm F
Her name was sugar
