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