 D           F#m 
I started a joke 
 G                A               D  F#m  G 
Which started the whole world crying 
    A         D  F#m  G 
But I didn't see 
         A            D  F#m  G  A

[Refrão]

 Bm              F#m 
I looked at the sky 
        G                D 
Running my hands over my eyes 
 F#m           Bm 
And I fell out of bed 
        G                    A 
Hurting my head from things that I'd said

'Til I finally died 
      G           A             D    F#m  G 
Which started the whole world living 
       A        D  F#m  G 
Oh, if I'd only seen 
         A 
That the joke was on me
