INTRO: A G D A G D
AGD
EVery year at Christmas time my friends all like to bake
AGD
They make cookies, rolls, and bread and ham and pie
AGD
And for some weird reason they all send me a fruitcake
AGB
When I tell them that I ate it it's a lie
AGD
I use them as an anchor for my boat out on the lake
AGD
I've made barbells for my cousins Merle and Luke
AGD
But if I try to eat some my intestines start to quake
A/ B
'Cause fruitcake makes me puke
CHORUS:
AE
Fruitcake makes me puke
A
It happens everytime I eat it so I know it's not a fluke
AE
Fruitcake makes me puke
That's the one thing about Christmas that no one can dispute
N/C B
Fruitcake makes me puke
AGD
I keep one in my office as a handy paperweight
AGD
I hear they're used as hammers in Debuke
AGD
But when I try to eat some I can't get it off the plate
A/ B
'Cause fruitcake makes me puke
CHORUS
SOLO
BRIDGE:
B7
And the main thing about fruitcake that I have found
B7
It looks the same way comin' up as it does goin' down
CHORUS
E
Well that's the one thing about Christmas that my family can't dispute
A/ B
Fruitcake makes me puke
