Verse 1:
C#m
She cooks you sweet potato, you don't like aubergine
B
She knows to boil the kettle when you hum bars from Grease

She senses you are lonely but still she can't be sure
B
And so she stands and waits, stands anticipating your thoughts

How can she become the psychic
G#m D F#
That she longs to be to understand you
Verse 2:
C#m
He brushes thoroughly
He knows she likes fresh breath
B
He rushes to the station
He waits atop the steps
C#m
He's brought with him a Mars bar
She will not buy Nestlé
B
And later he'll perform
N.C.
A love-lorn serenade, a trade

E
How can he become the psychic
G#m D F#
That he longs to be to understand you
E
How can he become the psychic
G#m D F#
That he longs to be to understand you

C#m
So give her information to help her fill the holes

Give an ounce of power so he does not feel controlled

Help her to acknowledge the pain that you are in

Give to him a glimpse of that beneath your skin

I'm a fool

I'm a fool

C#m
He greets the stranger meekly, a thing that she accepts

Do you like sweet potato?
