D#-Cm-G#-Fm-G#

D#D#
there's a place i go for breakfast every afternoon
C minorCm
the coffees rubbish and the bacons always hard to chew
G#G#                     F minorFm       G#G#
and the toast is always soggy, but i hardly notice
D#D#
and the food takes such a long time to get made
C minorCm
even when i'm the only person in the cafe
G#G#                     F minorFm       G#G#
and my tables always wobbly, but i hardly notice

D#D#
youre probably thinking why would i even bother eating there
C minorCm
on a daily basis theres heaps of other places on offer
G#G#
i wont change to another place if the bacon is rubber
      F minorFm                       G#G#
and the taste of the cuppa makes you pull faces and splutter
     D#D#
its the waitress i love her, the way she clears plates with a clutter
        C minorCm
makes my heart race and a flutter i know its crazy to lover her
  G#G#
a lady thats basically just a, stranger with an apron down her brother
     F minorFm          G#G#
i dont need to ask her name and number
     D#D#
cause this relationship
  C minorCm           G#G#                      F minorFm  G#G#
is built on breakfast, im waitin on her just to wait on me, yeah

there's a place i go for breakfast every afternoon
the coffees rubbish and the bacons always hard to chew
and the toast is always soggy, but i hardly notice
and the food takes such a long time to get made
even when i'm the only person in the cafe
and my tables always wobbly, but i hardly notice

she says hi to me bye to me thatl be 5.95 to me but i dont really mind
thats alright with me i just smile and eat
sometimes we mightn't speak for like a week
she knows in my quiet times i like to be alone
and write a poem with my headphones
newspaper bacon fried or poached egg and a slice of toast, a long black, but
the beans are always burnt
and if the cup is dirty she just cleans it with her shirt
i wonder if shes my ideal girl and what would happen if we dated in the real world
'nah' i dont think it would work i wouldnt wanna risk what we have and have to tip cause of that
besides, this relationship is built on breakfast
im waitin on her just to wait on me

there's a place i go for breakfast every afternoon
the coffees rubbish and the bacons always hard to chew
and the toast is always soggy, but i hardly notice
and the food takes such a long time to get made
even when i'm the only person in the cafe
and my tables always wobbly, but i hardly notice

and it dont matter that the bacon i eats cold and its ok the newpapers are weeks old
but i dont mind no its fine cause shes all that im there for X2

 there's a place i go for breakfast every afternoon
the coffees rubbish and the bacons always hard to chew
and the toast is always soggy, but i hardly notice
and the food takes such a long time to get made
even when i'm the only person in the cafe
and my tables always wobbly, but i hardly notice
