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 stalemate
   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

[Verse 2]

  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 lines
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

[Verse 3]

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