These chords are based on the Version 2 chords, which weren’t entirely right, and
was a bit hard to read seeing as the lyrics weren’t all with the chords. Let’s
just say this is kind of a revised one!
Capo 4
Her name was Flora Spread and she lived on Hovis Hill
Overlooking Baker Town from the window of her flour mill
The bright lights of the city fueled her longing to create
With the innovative bakers with whom she knew she could relate
She saw the cakes they cooked and the muffins that they made
But she kept on beating her bread, all the while feeling betrayed
That her mother left her in this mess of yeast, flour and dough
She must taste inspiration and stop chewing the bread of woe
Woah-oah-oah
Down in baker town lived Victoria Sponge
But her cakes just weren’t selling so she knew that it was time to take
A plunge into the new, and see things from a brand new view
“And yes young Miss Flora I am talking to you
Won’t you come down that hill of yours and work here in my shop?
You might have to bake until the ovens pop!
But I need your creative eye
With my wisdom and your innovation
Together we can bake the Perfect Success Pie
Success Pie
Success Pie-ie-iee”
Bread! BREAD!
After just one week in that shop, Flora’s business was booming
Her creativity blooming and her customers consuming
But looming, on the horizon, lay a rising problem
People couldn’t stop eating, and there was nothing that could stop them
What was once a people of pretty balanced diets
Baker Town without its bread was revolution without riots
Flora closed her shop down, but she knew it was too late
And soon enough the population of the town was overweight
Overweight
Overwei-hey-yay-e-ight
Bread! BREAD!
And so, the very next day Flora went back to her mill
And opened up her bread shop
But it seemed, to Flora’s dismay that no one wanted her bread
And she was left alone up on the hilltop
Victoria Sponge kept on baking
With recipes she stole from Flora’s notes
And Flora’s heart kept breaking
As the cakes continued rising, and the bread became toast…
I’m not exactly sure with the chords in the last verse though (where it goes
“Victoria Sponge kept on baking…”, but they kind of work.
Hope you enjoy it!
