1. I started a joke,     which started the whole world crying,
         D            G  - Bm           C                D                  G  - Bm     C   - D
    but I didn't see,        oh oh no, that the joke was on me,       oh no.
 
   G                Bm  - C                                 D              G           - Bm - C

    oh, if I'd only seen                that the joke was on me.
 
  Em                      Bm                       C                      G
    I looked at the skies, running my hands over my eyes,
          Bm             Em                       Am                                  D
    and I fell out of bed, hurting my head from things that I'd said.
 
         G            Bm  - C                                  D               G         - Bm - C
3. Till I finally cried,       which started the whole world laughing,
             D            G  - Bm - C               D                 G 
    oh, if I'd only seen              that the joke was on me.
