Muffin Man Chords

(ver. 1)
Frank Zappa
[Intro]

Bbaug

[Verse]

Bbaug
The muffin man is seated at the table
Bbaug
In the laboratory of the utility muffin Research kitchen.
Bbaug
Reaching for an oversized chrome spoon,
Bbaug                                    Aaug
He gathers an Intimate quantity of dried muffin
G#aug Gaug   F#aug        Faug      Eaug
Remnants and brushing his scapular aside,
   D#aug    Bbaug
Procceds to dump these inside of his shirt...
Bbaug                     Aaug
He turns to us and speaks:

[Bridge]

G#dim7
  "Some people like cupcakes better.
G#dim7
I for one care less for them!"

[Verse]

Bbaug
  Arrogantly twisting the sterile canvas 
Bbaug
Snoot of a fully charged icing anointment utensil,
Bbaug
He 'poot's forths a quarter-ounce green rosette,
Bbaug
- oh ah yuk, yuk... let's try that again...! -
Bbaug
He 'poots' forth a quarter-ounce green rosette
Bbaug
Near the summit of a dense,
Bbaug
But radiant muffin of his own design.
      Aaug
Later he says:

[Bridge]

G#dim7
   "Some people... some people like cupcakes
G#dim7
Exclusively, while myself, I say,
G#dim7
There is naught nor ought there be nothing 
G#dim7
So exalted on the face of god's grey
G#dim7
Earth as that prince of foods... the muffin!"

[Chorus]

F#m                       B
Girl you thought he was a man,
             C#m
But he was a muffin,
   F#m                  B
He hung around till you found,
                    C#m
That he didn't know nuthin',
F#m                       B
Girl you thought he was a man,
                  C#m
But he only was a-puffin',
   F#m                   B
No cries is heard in the night,
                   C#m
As a result of him stuffin'

[Solo]

F#m B C#m
F#m B C#m
F#m B C#m
F#m B C#m
F#m B C#m
F#m B C#m
F#m B C#m
F#m B C#m
