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