B                  E 
Well the coffee is thirty weight 
 
F#7                        B 
And there’s grease in the beans 
 
                          E 
And the steak tastes like old shoe tongue 
 
F#7                  B 
And the waitress is mean 
 
                         E 
But the sign says you’re welcome here 
 
F#7             B 
If you drive a truck 
 
                     E 
If you’re lonely and yearn for love 
 
F#7                     B 
Or you’re down on your luck 
 
               F#7            B 
And the diesel cafe lulls me away 
 
              F#7                        B 
I spend every passing day at the diesel café 
 
                   E 
There’s red velvet stairs to climb 
 
F#7                    B 
With the rooms at the top  
 
                    E 
And girls there who go for love 
 
F#7                  B 
And they don’t ever stop 
 
                      E 
And the jukebox plays old love songs 
 
F#7                        B 
Filled with heartache and pain 
 
                     E 
While the sun shines all over town 
 
F#7             B 
On the cafe it rains 
 
               F#7            B 
And the diesel cafe lulls me away 
 
              F#7                        B 
I spend every passing day at the diesel café 
 
                      E 
If you’re out on that road tonight 
 
F#7                 B 
Full of coffee and speed 
 
                           E 
And those white lines have crossed your eyes 
 
F#7                     B 
Then you know what you need 
 
              E 
Drift into my favorite place 
 
F#7                B 
You might want to stay 
 
                            E 
Cause there’s something for everyone 
 
F#7            B 
At the diesel café 
 
               F#7            B 
And the diesel cafe lulls me away 
 
              F#7                        B 
I spend every passing day at the diesel cafe
