Lyrics

(CN.C.)(Sug ar.)

(Sug ar.)

(Sug ar, but ter.) (Sug ar, but ter, flour.

Sug ar, but ter, flour.

(D)Sug ar, but ter, flour.) My hands pluck the things I know that I’ll need.

I’ll take the (D7)sug ar and but ter from the pan try.

I add the (G)flo ur to be gin what I am hop ing to start, and then it’s (Gm6)down with the rec i pe and bake from the heart.

(D)What’s in side,

ev ’ry one wants to know (D7)what’s in side.

And I’ve al ways told them,

but I

feel (Gm6)some thing needs to change.

You wan na know (D)what’s in side?

I could tell you if I (D7)was n’t hid ing.

My whole life is in here,

in this kitch en, bak ing.

What a mess I’m mak (Sug ing.

ar, but ter, flour.

Sug ar, but ter, flour.

Sug ar, but ter, flour.)
