| | I wish you would have | smiled in the | bakery |
| | Bm |
| Or sat on a tatty | settee |
| | Dm |
| | At some mutual friend's gathering |
| | A | C#m |
| | And the more you keep on | looking |
| | F#m |
| The more it's | hard to take |
| | Bm |
| Love, We're in | stale mate |
| | Dm | C#m |
| | To never meet is surely where we're | bound |
| | Bm |
| There's one in every | town |
| Just there to grind you down |

| | Bm |
| Well maybe I did and | I missed it... |
| | Dm |
| | Too busy with the mind on clever rhymes |
| | A | C#m | F#m |
| | why not the | rounder's pitch or the | canteen? |
| | Bm |
| You're slacking Love; where have | you been? |
| | Dm |
| | Just had to go and wait until tonight... |

| | Bm | Dm | A |
| Sipping on a lemon | aid in | the paper cup and chewing on the | straw |

| and I wish I'd | seen you in | the bakery |
| seen you in the bakery... (PAUSE) you probably wouldn't have seen me |
| Optional outro: A F#m Dm F A |
