Intro: Am   x4


Verse 1:
           Am           
Put my hand on the Bible 
Am                 
Doing it for liable 
Dm
It's suing season 
              E7
And I am broke 

Buy me some happy 

Find me some passion 

Will it ever happen? 

Heaven knows 

Chorus:
Am                                           Dm
Sometimes you've got to get the joke 
G                                              C(9) E7
It's the only thing that keeps this bloke afloat 
Am                                    Dm
Who put this spanner in my spokes? 
Fm                             C      E7 (break)
I can't change how it's wrote 

Verse 2:

Classy or flashy 

At home with Lassie 

They all walk past me 

I wouldn't know 

Make me a new man 

Find me a new plan 

I am a sports fan 

A real bloke 

 Chorus:

Sometimes you've got to get the joke 

It's the only thing that keeps this bloke afloat 

Who put this chainsaw in my spokes? 

I can't change how it's wrote 


F7
When my ship comes in 
E7
She'll be on it 
Am
Eating a fresh kebab 
D7
And I want it 
G#7             G
And I want it now 

(Scat) ? play chorus

Chorus:
Sometimes you've got to get the joke 
It's the only thing that keeps this bloke afloat 
You get the tagger I the clum.
I can't change how it's wrote
