Verse 1:

D F#m G D There is a girl I see every day D A7 D She works in the café D A F# Bm At the corner down the street G A D Where I go after my shift D F#m G D I spend my lunch break there each day D A7 D And without any word to say D A F# Bm She brings me a cup of sugary tea G A D And gently smiles at me
G A D I know her well G A Bm And she knows me well G A D Bm I see her often after work G A D For she is my best friend's lover

Verse 2:

D F#m G D From the window I sit by at my workplace D A D I can see easily her face D A F# Bm All the ladies that work there have long fair hair G A D But she's the reason why I wouldn't go elsewhere D F#m G D If I ever fancy a sweet pastry D A D She gives me one for free D A F# Bm She'd never charge me when I ask for the bill G A D She'll use her next tip to pay off the till
G A D I'll never tell her G A Bm I think that I fell G A D Bm In love with her, I lock my heart instead G A D For she is my best friend's girlfriend

Verse 3:

D F#m G D I've bought a cup and a tin can of tea D A D From now on I stay in D A F# Bm It will be easier I think for me G A D To change my loving feeling D F#m G D Eventually she ran into me D A D And sadly she asked me D A F# Bm Is there any reason why you don't come to drink G A D Anymore a cup of tea with milk?
G G7 G6 G7 G And I replied D F#m G D There's a backlog of work I got to catch up on D A D So I'm quite busy these days D A F# Bm But I'll soon come eating a slice of apple pie someday G A D Sprinkled with cinnamon
G A D But I didn't believe G A Bm In what I just said G A D Bm But I'm relieved if she did G A D I don't want to cause her any pain G A D Oh life did send G A Bm A trial to prove I'm a good friend G A D Bm But I'm sure I won't fail this test G A D I like her but I love him the best
