Bread Charlie McDonnell
These chords are based on the Version 2 chords, which weren't entirely right, and
was a bit hard to read seeing as the lyrics weren't all with the chords. Let's
just say this is kind of a revised one!
Capo 4
Her [Am]name was Flora Spread and she [E]lived on Hovis Hill
[F]Overlooking Baker Town from the [Bb]window of her [E]flour mill
The [Am]bright lights of the city fueled her [E]longing to create
With the [F]innovative bakers with whom she [Bb]knew she could re[E]late
She [Am]saw the cakes they [E]cooked and the [F]muffins that they [Bb]made[E]
But she [Am]kept on beating [E]her bread, all the [F]while feeling betray[Bb]ed[E]
That her [Am]mother left her in[E] this mess of [F]yeast, flour and [Bb]doug[E]h
She [Am]must taste inspi[E]ration and stop [F]chewing the bread of [E]woe[Am] [G] [D]
Woah-[Am]oah-[G]oah[D]
[Am]Down in baker town lived [G]Victoria Sponge
But [D]her cakes just weren't selling so she [E]knew that it was time to take
A pl[Am]unge into the new, and [G]see things from a brand new view
"And [G]yes young Miss Flora I am[E] talking to you
Won't yo[Am]u come down that [E]hill of yours and [F]work here in my [Bb]shop[E]?
You [Am]might have to b[E]ake until the[F] ovens po[Bb]p![E]
But I [Am]need your cr[E]eative eye[F] [Bb] [E]
[Am]With my [E]wisdom and [F]your innova[E]tion
To[Am]gether we can [E]bake the [F]Perfect Success [E]Pie[Am] [G] [D]
Success Pie[Am] [G] [D]
Success [Am]Pie-[G]ie-[D]iee"[E]
[F] Bread![E] BREAD!
[Am] [E] [F] [Bb] [E]
[Am] [E] [F] [E]
After just [Am]one week in that shop, [E]Flora's business was booming
Her [F]creativity blooming and her [Bb]customers con[E]suming
But l[Am]ooming, on the horizon,[E] lay a rising problem
[F]People couldn't stop eating, and ther[Bb]e was nothing [E]that could stop them
[Am]What was once a [E]people of [F]pretty balanced di[Bb]ets[E]
[Am]Baker Town withou[E]t its bread was [F]revolution [Bb]without [E]riots
[Am]Flora closed her [E]shop down, but she [F]knew it was too [Bb]late[E]
And [Am]soon enough the [E]population [F]of the town was over[E]weight[Am] [G] [D]
Overweig[Am]ht[G] [D]
Over[Am]wei-[G]hey-yay-[D]e-ight[E] [F] [E]
[F] Bread![E] BREAD!
[Am] [E] [F] [Bb] [E]
[Am] [E] [F] [G]
And so[A], the [Dm]very next day[A] Flora [Dm]went back to her [A]mill
And [Dm]opened up her bread[A] shop[Dm] [G]
But it s[A]eemed, to [Dm]Flora's dismay[A] that no one [Dm]wanted her bre[A]ad
And [Dm]she was left alo[A]ne up on the [Dm]hilltop[G]
[D] Vic[F]toria Spon[G]ge kept on baking
[D] With [F]recipes she [E]stole from [Eb]Flora's notes
[D] And [F]Flora's hea[G]rt kept breaking
[D] As the c[F]akes continued [E]rising, and the [Eb]bread became[D] toast...
I'm not exactly sure with the chords in the last verse though (where it goes
"Victoria Sponge kept on baking...", but they kind of work.
Hope you enjoy it!
