[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                D           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                D            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                D           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               D            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                D           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               D            E
She bakes brownies for the boys in the band...[END]
