[Intro 1]
[D][Bb][Eb][D][Bb][Eb][D][Bb][Eb]
[D]

[Verse 1]
Miss [D]Fudge is
only [C#]waiting for a [F#m]man to co[F#]me her way
She has been [Bm]waiting [F#]80 years for Mr. [Bm]Maple
but he [A]doesn't know that [G]she is waiting [F#]too
It's nothing new
Mr. [D]Maple gets up

[Verse 2]
[C#]early every [F#]morning cooks
his breakfast all [Bm]alone the house is [F#]cold
He needs a [Bm]wo man's hand to
[A]comfort him in [G]his reclining [F#]years
He overhears

[Verse 3]
The [D]people on the street they
pass him by and sort of snicker
In his younger years he should
have been a little quicker
For [E]in the hand of someone [A]he could
[E]love but who's to judge
If he'll ever have a meeting [A]with Miss [Ab]Fudge
[D]

[Interlude 1]
[C#][F#m][F#]
[Bm][F#][Bm][A][G][F#]

[Verse 4]
Miss [D]Fudge's hopes were [C#]fading
that a [F#m]man would co[F#]me her way
She had been [Bm]darning no ones [F#]socks and
when the [Bm]years crept up her [A]misery
[G]Just slowly pushed her [F#]on
And now she's gone
Mr [D]Maple's life alone

[Verse 5]
[C#]was just
too [F#m]much for h[F#]im to bear
And in his [Bm]heart he knew [F#]there'd never [Bm]be
[A]someone to comfort [G]him at times he [F#]cried
And then he died

[Verse 6]
But [D]everything is better now
They're both at last togeth[G]er
The [D]question now is answered for all
those who wondered whether
They [E]each at last had found a friend
and if they did mis[A]judge
Their [E]tombstones side by
side read [A]Maple [Ab]Fudge
