A                   C#m           F#m

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

  A                 C#m             F#m

I wish I would have seen you in the post office

                     Bm

well maybe I did and I missed it

    Dm

too busy with a mind on clever rhymes

A           C#m               F#m

why not the rounders pitch or the canteen 

                                 Bm

you're slacking love, where have you been?

     Dm                         C#m

Just had to go and wait until tonight

                 Bm

so give me the invite



don't worry it's alright

  A                 C#m              F#m

I wish I would have seen you down in the arcade

                 Bm          Dm                            A

sipping on a lemonade in the paper cup and chewing on the straw

                        C#m             F#m

and I wish I would have seen you in the bakery

                           Bm    Dm

but if I'd seen you in the bakery  you probably wouldn't have seen me
