A nonconstant rational function on a smooth projective curve extends to a finite morphism to the projective line. The inverse images of its two standard affine charts are affine varieties covering the curve. The resulting Čech cochain complex has only degrees zero and one, so every coherent sheaf has zero sheaf cohomology in degrees at least two.
