[Asus2]
There's a boy who works at Starbucks
[D6/A]
Who is very inspirational
[Bm7] [D/E] [Asus2] [Esus4] [E7]
He is very inspirational because of many things
[Asus4] [D6/A]
I come in at 8:11, and he smiles and says, "How are you?"
[Bm7]
When he smiles and says, "How are you?"
[Bm7] [Esus4] [C#7/E#]
I could swear my heart grows wings
[F#m7]
So today at 8:11
[Asus4] [A7]
I decided I should meet him
[Dsus2]
I decided I should meet him
[G7]
In a proper, formal way
[F#m7] [Asus4] [A7]
So today at 8:11 when he smiled and said "How are you?"
[Dadd9]
I said "Fine, and my name’s Kristin"
[Bm7] [Esus4] [C#7/F]
And he softly answered, "Hey"
[F#m7]
And I said "My name is Kristen,
[A/E] [D#m7b5] [Dm7] [G7]
And thank you for the extra foam"
[A/E]
And he said his name was Taylor,
[Esus4] [Asus2] [D/A] [Amaj7]
Which provides the inspiration for this poem
[Asus2] [C#7] [Dsus2] [D/C#]
Taylor, the latte boy
[Bm7] [A/C#] [D] [Esus4] [C#7/E#]
Bring me java, bring me joy
[F#m7] [C#m7/E] [B7/D#]
Oh, Taylor, the latte boy
[Asus2/E] [Esus4] [Bm7/A] [A] [Eb/F]
I love him, I love him, I love him
[Bbsus2]
So I’d like to get my nerve up
[Eb/Bb]
To recite my poem musical
[Cm7] [Eb/F]
He would like the fact it’s musical
[Bbsus2] [Eb/F]
Because he plays guitar
[Bbsus2] [Eb/Bb]
So today at 8:11, Taylor told me he was playing
[Cm7] [Cm7] [F7] [D7/F#]
In a band down in the village in the basement of a bar
[Gm7] [Ab/Bb] [Bb7]
And he smoothly flipped the lever to prepare my double latte
[Eb] [Ab7]
But for me he made it triple, and he didn’t think I knew
[Gm7] [Ab/Bb] [Bb7]
But I saw him flip the lever, and for me he made it triple
[Eb] [Cm7] [Fsus4] [D7/F#]
And I knew that triple latte meant that Taylor loved me too
[Gm]
I said, "What time are you playing?
[Gm7/F] [Em7b5] [Ebm9] [Ab7]
And thank you for the extra skim"
[Bb/F]
He said, "Keep the $3.55,"
[Eb/F] [Bbsus2]
Because this triple latte was on him
[Bb] [D7] [Eb] [Bb/D]
Taylor, the latte boy
[Cm7] [Bb/D] [Eb] [Fsus4] [D7/F#]
Bring me java, bring me joy
[Gm7] [Dm7/F] [C7/E]
Oh, Taylor, the latte boy,
[Bb/F] [Eb/F] [Cm/Bb] [Bb]
I love him, I love him, I love him
[C/D] [D7(b9)] [Gm7] [Bb/C] [C7] [F] [F/Eb]
I used to be the kind of girl who'd run when love rushed toward her
[C/D] [D7(b9)] [Gm] [Gm7]
But finally a voice whispered "Love can be yours
[Bb/C] [C7] [Cm7] [F7]
If you step up to the counter and order"
[Bb] [D7] [Ebsus2] [Bb/D]
Taylor, the latte boy
[Cm7] [Bb/D] [Eb] [Fsus4] [D7/F#]
Bring me java, bring me joy
[Gm] [Dm7/F] [C7/E]
Oh, Taylor, the latte boy,
[Bb/F] [Eb/F] [Cm/Bb] [Bb]
I love him, I love him, I love him
[Ebmaj7] [Cm/Eb] [Dm7] [Bb/D]
So many years my heart has waited
[D7] [C/E] [Bdim/G] [C7] [Cm7b5/Gb]
Who’d have thought that love could be so caffeinated?
[Bb/F] [D7/F#] [Gm7] [C7]
Taylor, the latte boy
[Bb/F] [Eb/F] [D7/F#] [Gm7] [C9]
I love him, I love him, I love him
[Bb/F] [Eb/F] [Cm/Bb] [Bbsus2]
I love him, I love him, I love him
