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

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


Hook:
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


Verse 3:
  C#m
So give her information to help her fill the holes
B
Give an ounce of power so he does not feel controlled
C#m
Help her to acknowledge the pain that you are in
B                        E
Give to him a glimpse of that beneath your skin


Bridge:
A      C#    F#m       A
Now my inner dialogue is heaving with detest
    C#m     G#m     E      F#
I am a martyr and a victim and I need to be caressed
 A       C#       F#m       A
I hate that you negate me, I'm a ghost at beck and call
  C#m      G#m     E        F#
I'm fading and placating, I berate myself for staying
   A C#
I'm a fool
F#m A C#m G#m
 I'm a fool

Solo:
E G#m D F# x2


Outro:
  C#m
He greets the stranger meekly, a thing that she accepts
  B
She sees him waiting often with chocolate on the steps
  C#m
He senses she is lonely she's glad they finally met
   B
They take each other's hands walk into the sunset
  E
Do you like sweet potato?
