G            Bm  C
I started a joke
                    D         G      Bm C
Which started the whole world crying
    D         G Bm C
But I didn't see
          D           G  Bm  C D
That the joke was on me, oh no

G             Bm C
I started to cry
                    D          G     Bm C
Which started the whole world laughing
       D         G  Bm C
Oh, if I'd only seen
          D           G
That the joke was on me

Chorus:
Em               Bm
I looked at the skies
             C            G
Running my hands over my eyes
    Bm            Em
And I fell out of bed
 Em         Am
Hurting my head
                      D
From things that I'd said

'Til I finally died
Which started the whole world living
Oh, if I'd only seen
That the joke was on me

Chorus

'Til I finally died
Which started the whole world living
Oh, if I'd only seen, oh yeah
That the joke was on me

Oh no, that the joke was on me, oh
