And there’s a heartache and a memory and just a tear or two, In a broken-hearted lovers’ stew

There are nine carrots to remind me of the ring I bought for you
G C
Some mint for all the crazy things that we ‘mint’ to do
Am Dm
A lettuce, ‘cause your Mum and Dad would not ‘lettuce’ alone
Bb C E
I won’t put in the truffles, you’ve got truffles of your own
Am G
An artichoke for the hearty jokes your father used to tell
F E
And as he was a Welshman we’ll have a leek as well
Dm Am
And your cousin, the religious one, so sanctimonious
E
For him some loafs and fishes ‘cause that’s all he ever does

Am G F E C
And there’s a heartache and a memory and just a tear or two, in a broken-hearted lovers’ stew

There’s a radish ‘cause you kept repeating that your love was true

Am Dm
Some shallots for the time I said I love you such shallot

A turnip for the way you always used to turnip late

And your little baby brother, what a messy little kid

For him some sage and onions ‘cause he want’s stuffing too
