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