D A C G

        D            A              C
There's wheat in the field
    G            D        A        C        G
And water in the stream
    D           A             C
And salt in the mine
       G         D        A        C        G
And an aching in me.

      D      A         G  D
I can longer stand and wonder
        D      A       G  D
Cos I'm driven by this hunger.

        D        A      C         G
So I'll jug some water, bake some flour,
D          A        C        G
Store some salt and wait the hour.

     D           A           C
When thinking of love,
        G            D        A         C         G
Love is thinking for me
        D          A          C
And the baker will come
        G          D         A         C         G
And the baker I'll be

      D       A     G D
I'm depending on my labour,
    D       A       G  D
The texture and the flavour

N.C.
Hey!

(guitar solo)

I can no longer stand and wonder
Cos I'm driven by this hunger

So I'll jug some water, bake some flour.
Store some salt and wait the hour.
