This is the chord progression of Precarious Supermarket Song by Martha on piano, guitar, ukulele and keyboard.
[Verse 1]:
A
I was hanging out by the freezers
C#m D
When I saw you sitting there
A
Getting bollocked by your supervisor
C#m D
But you didn\’t seem to care
A
And when it came time to check-out
C#m D
You stood beside my till
A
I said \”retail is the pits\”
C#m D
And then I scanned your anxiety pills
[Chorus]:
A
I\’m gonna finish what I started
C#m D
I\’m gonna go to the supermarket
A
Straightening my tie
Plucking up the might
C#m D
To ask you out on Saturday night
[Riff]:

[Verse 2]:
A
Walking you down the aisle
C#m D
We took some cheap enjoyment
A
Lamenting neoliberal
C#m D
Precarious employment
A
But this flutter in my chest
C#m D
Keeps on getting scarier
A
I\’m an unexpected item
C#m D
In your bagging area
[Chorus]:
A
I\’m gonna finish what I started
C#m D
I\’m gonna go to the supermarket
A
Straightening my tie
Plucking up the might
C#m D
To ask you out on Saturday night
A F#m
Oh oh, when you gonna, when you gonna
E D
Oh oh, when you gonna get off work?

[Bridge]:
Bm F#m
If there\’s something you\’re too shy to say
A E
We can go somewhere more private
C#m F#m
If you\’re scared of what might happen
D E
You won\’t know until you try it
Bm F#m
I\’m a person, you\’re a person
A E
Nothing else is really certain
C#m F#m
And the night is still so young
D E
So let\’s get out of here and have some fun
