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