The Sweet Hereafter

Strudels and soufflés, custards and tarts
Jelly's and cookies and pastries like hearts
Fill me with cream or roll me in dough
A trifle of trifle, a pudding to go

In the sweet hereafter I will recall
All the things that I've eaten
I've eaten them [A]all
The ones that I've missed
Well we'll meet again
In the sweet hereafter
I'll see my [A]old friends

Sticky date pudding and [Bm]banoffee pie
Jam ɾoly-poly and [Bm]mud in your eye
Dutch baby pancakes and [Bm]Cumberland [Bm]pie
Key lime meringue piled up to [C7]the sky

In the sweet hereafter I will ɾecall
All the things that I've eaten
I've eaten them [A]all
The ones that I've missed
Well we'll meet again
In the sweet hereafter
I'll see my [A]old friends

Chocolate stɾiped candies, Swiss peppermint ɾolls
upside down sponge cake
And gingerbread men
Mousses are tasty or tɾy crème brûlée
Black forest cake and [Bm]cinnamon [C7]spice
Marzipan, butter-cake and [Bm]syllabub
Fondue and [Bm]ice-cream served up in a tub
Mooncake and [Bm]ɾice cake, pavlova for [Dm7]tea
All of them [A]waiting for [Dm7]you [A7and [Bm]for [Dm7]me...

In the sweet hereafter I will ɾecall
All the things that I've eaten
I've eaten them [A]all
The ones that I've missed
Well we'll meet again
In the sweet hereafter
I'll see my [A]old friends
In the sweet hereafter
In the sweet hereafter
I'll see my [A]old friends
