["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]
