Intro: A5   x4


Verse 1:
           A5           
Put my hand on the Bible 
A5                 
Doing it for liable 
D5
It's suing season 
              E5
And I am broke 

Buy me some happy 

Find me some passion 

Will it ever happen? 

Heaven knows 

Chorus:
A5                                           D5
Sometimes you've got to get the joke 
G5                                              C5 E5
It's the only thing that keeps this bloke afloat 
A5                                    D5
Who put this spanner in my spokes? 
F5                             C5      E5 (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 


F5
When my ship comes in 
E5
She'll be on it 
A5
Eating a fresh kebab 
D5
And I want it 
G#5             G5
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
