[«Supermarket Fantasy»]
[Play verse (A C# F# E) twice]
[Verse]
A C# F#
Through the automatic doors, my shopping cart ran into hers
E
Our eyes met for a second then she turned away
A C# F#
After just a little while went into the canned goods aisle
E
And she was just standing there smiling
[Chorus]
D A
I was hoping she’d look at me
D A D
But she was checking out the lima beans
A E
And artichokes, my heart was broke in pieces
By my supermarket fantasy
[Verse]
Didn’t want to seem obsessed, I checked Farina off my list
But I couldn’t keep my mind off those perfect lips
Saw her start to walk my way, thought everything would be okay
And then I ran into the Cocoa Puffs display
[Chorus]
Hurried to the checkout line
Wishing I could push back time
I looked around and she was right behind me
[Solo over verse and chorus]

[Verse]
Wanna clip your coupons, girl, wanna squeeze your Charmin, too
I wanna be your grocery bagger forever
We’ll go shopping every night up and down the empty aisles
And I’ll always make sure your melons are ripe
[Chorus]
But I can’t get up the nerve
I could have the best buys in the world
But I’ll never share a shopping cart with her
My supermarket fantasy
[End on A]
