[Intro]
E D E D
[Verse 1]
E D Do you have a problem E D Would you like someone to solve them E D B7 Would you like someone to share in your misery? E A G A G Now, I don't know the answer, But I know a flamenco dancer A G B7 Who will dance for you if you will dance for me
[Chorus]
E A E Her name's Miranda F#m B7 She's a Rudolph Valentino fan F#m B7 And she doesn't claim to understand A B7 E She bakes brownies for the boys in the band
[Verse 2]
E D Early Sunday morning E D When the sermon lines are forming E D B7 And Saturday night is the memories that it gave E A G A G She is busy in the pantry, far away from Elmer Gantry A G B7 Who is busy baking souls that he may save
[Chorus]
E A E Everybody's soul but Miranda F#m B7 She's a Rudolph Valentino fan F#m B7 And she doesn't claim to understand A B7 E She bakes brownies for the boys in the band
[Verse 3]
E D The dice of death are calling E D While the truck of time is falling E D B7 By the thumb stuck out on the highway of the years E A G A G The tollgate at the turnpike, Is ignored by those who hitch-hike A G B7 And the Howard Johnson food is made of fear
[Chorus]
E A E But not Miranda F#m B7 She's a Rudolph Valentino fan F#m B7 And she doesn't claim to understand A B7 E She bakes brownies for the boys in the band
[Verse 4]
E D The sun burnt skin is peeling E D On the doctors who are healing E D B7 And the license plates are laughing on the car E A G A G The pain is so exciting, and everyone's inviting A G B7 You to look upon their operation scars
[Chorus]
E A E But not Miranda F#m B7 She's a Rudolph Valentino fan F#m B7 And she doesn't claim to understand A B7 E She bakes brownies for the boys in the band
[Verse 5]
E D The condiments are clashing E D While commercial planes are crashing E D B7 And the music of the evening is so sweet E A G A G Now fully in agreement Oh, their feet have found the cement A G B7 And they all believe the signs along the street
[Chorus]
E A E Her name's Miranda F#m B7 She's a Rudolph Valentino fan F#m B7 And she doesn't claim to understand A B7 E She bakes brownies for the boys in the band
[Verse 6]
E D In the bar we're gin and scotching E D While the FBI is watching E D B7 They are tape recording every other word E A G A G The bartender is bleeding pardon me, I just was leaving A G B7 As another clever voice repeats absurd
[Chorus]
E A E But not Miranda F#m B7 She's a Rudolph Valentino fan F#m B7 And she doesn't claim to understand A B7 E She bakes brownies for the boys in the band...[END]
[Repeat Verse 1]
E D Do you have a problem E D Would you like someone to solve them E D B7 Would you like someone to share in your misery? E A G A G Now, I don't know the answer, But I know a flamenco dancer A G B7 Who will dance for you if you will dance for me
[Chorus]
E A E Her name's Miranda F#m B7 She's a Rudolph Valentino fan F#m B7 And she doesn't claim to understand A B7 E She bakes brownies for the boys in the band...[END]
