E    Bm    F#m    Am
E    Bm    F#m    Am

E              Bm     F#m
I started a joke,
                           Am              E      Bm      F#m
which started the whole world crying,
   Am        E     Bm     F#m
but I didn't see
           Am              E      Bm
that the joke was on me,
F#m    Am
oh no.


E              Abm       A
I started to cry,
                            B                 E            Abm    A
which started the whole world laughing,
       B           E      Abm     A
oh, if I'd only seen
            B                E
that the joke was on me.


C#m                  Abm                     A                    E
I, I looked at the skies, running my hands over my eyes,
   Abm             C#m                    A                                E      B
and I, I fell out of bed, hurting my head from things that I'd said.


   E          Bm     F#m
Til I finally died,
                          Am             E        Bm      F#m
which started the whole world living,
       Am         E      Abm      A
oh, if I'd only seen
            B                E
that the joke was on me.


C#m               Abm                      A                   E
I looked at the skies, running my hands over my eyes,
  Abm              C#m                    A                                E      B
and I, I fell out of bed, hurting my head from things that I'd said.


   E          Bm      F#m
'Til I finally died,
                          Am             E       Bm     F#m
which started the whole world living
      Am         E      Abm      A
oh, if I'd only seen
            B                E      Abm      A
that the joke was on me
            B                E      Abm      A
that the joke was on me
            B                E     Bm     F#m     Am     E
