INTRO: A  G  D   A  G  D

A                               G                   D
EVery year at Christmas time my friends all like to bake
          A                                     G    D
They make cookies, rolls, and bread and ham and pie
        A                          G              D
And for some weird reason they all send me a fruitcake
       A                              G   D  B
When I tell them that I ate it it's a lie

  A                            G                D
I use them as an anchor for my boat out on the lake
          A                                 G     D
I've made barbells for my cousins Merle and Luke
    A                         G                  D
But if I try to eat some my intestines start to quake
       A/                      B
'Cause fruitcake makes me puke


CHORUS:
A                  E
Fruitcake makes me puke
                                   A
It happens everytime I eat it so I know it's not a fluke
A                  E
Fruitcake makes me puke

That's the one thing about Christmas that no one can dispute
N/C                     B
Fruitcake makes me puke

  A                          G           D
I keep one in my office as a handy paperweight
  A                                 G     D
I hear they're used as hammers in Debuke
    A                      G                      D
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
