This is just the way i prefer to play it :) With power chords...Listen to the song 
for the rhythm, it's on YouTube. 

It's also been played by Mike Pedicin. I'm not sure who wrote it though. 

Intro: just mess around with the verse chords


Now let me tell you that
Bb     Db      Eb       F#
I came home so late last night
Bb         Ab      Eb      F 
Looked but found no one in sight
Bb          Db  Eb     F#
Guess that I'll investigate
Bb
Who's been keeping my baby out late

           Bb    Db
I'm eating burnt toast
              Eb             Db
and drinking black black coffee
         Bb    Dd
eating burnt toast 
              Eb            Db
and drinking black black coffee
         Bb     Db
eating burnt toast 
              Eb            Db
and drinking black black coffee
Bb      (n/c)            Db
that's all she left for me


Bb     Db      Ebm      F#
breakfast lunch and dinner too
Bb         Ab      Ebm      F 
I used to sit across from you
Bb          Db  Ebm     F#
but now I face an empty chair
Bb
you are gone and I wonder where


Bb    Db
I'm eating burnt toast
              Eb             Db
and drinking black black coffee
         Bb    Dd
eating burnt toast 
              Eb            Db
and drinking black black coffee
         Bb     Db
eating burnt toast 
              Eb            Db
and drinking black black coffee
Bb      (n/c)            Db
that's all she left for me
