Verse 1:

G Bm
I started a joke
C D G Bm C
Which started the whole world crying

But I didn't see
D [1, 4: G Bm C D ; 2, 3: G]
That the joke was on me, oh no

Verse 2:

I started to cry
Which started the whole world laughing
Oh, if I'd only seen
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
/D Am
Hurting my head
D [N.C.]
From things that I'd said

Verse 3:

'Til I finally died
Which started the whole world living
Oh, if I'd only seen [4: oh, yeah]
That the joke was on me

[repeat chorus]

That the joke was on me
G Bm C D G [end cold]
Oh...
