play intro four times fast!! Then into verse...

     F#5                       B5
	I tried to make cupcakes but I had some
	                     F#5
	trouble with the directions.
                               B5
	Yeah I know how to read
                                PM D#5 C#5 B5
	but I just couldn?t pay attention.

                  D#5     C#5     B5
	I saw your picture and it all came back
       D#5     C#5  B5           D#5        C#5    B5 ; let ring
	I still felt hungry but I threw them in the trash.

       F#5                      B5
	I tried to make cupcakes
	                              F#5
	but I think I did something wrong.
                                B5
	They came out kind of crusty.
                               PM D#5 C#5 B5
	I guess I left them in to long.

                   D#5   C#5  B5                 D#5
	I wanted to leave them outside your front door.
         C#5           B5         D#5 C#5 B5 ; let ring over next line.
	I tried to make cupcakes...
                             F#5     C#5 D#5 B5
	but I?m not trying anymore...
              F#5    C#5  B5
	...anymore...

       F#5          C#5            D#5
	It?s not the way it used to be.
                B5           F#5         C#5           B5
	It?s the same old recipe but it?s missing something.

Bridge: G#5  B5  C#5  G#5  C#5  D#5  B5  X2 then play bridge
together with the following lines...

	I can?t understand why you got so mad
	and I don?t know why these things taste so bad
	I got what I deserved and I guess there?s no dessert
	for a guy who wants his cake but needs to learn to wait.

Play intro riff X3

       F#5          C#5            D#5         B5          F#5
	It?s not the way it used to be it?s the same old recipe
                C#5           B5
	but it?s missing something...
       F#5         C#5            D#5            B5
	I wanted to leave them outside your front door.
       F#5             C#5
	I tried to make cupcakes
       B5                    C#5 B5 C#5 G#5 C#5 D#5 B5    X2
	but I?m not trying anymore...

End of song!.

There are some short riffs here and there but I don?t find them
necessary to tab out, the version above sounds quite close.
