The Joke chords by Brandi Carlile
Guitar chords with lyrics
Intro:
D Am G D
Verse 1:
D Am
You're feeling nervous, aren't you, boy?
G D
With your quiet voice and impeccable style
Am
Don't ever let them steal your joy
G D
And your gentle ways, to keep 'em from running wild
They can kick dirt in your face
Am
Dress you down, and tell you that your place
G D
Is in the middle, when they hate the way you shine
Am
I see you tugging on your shirt
G D
Trying to hide inside of it and hide how much it hurts
🎸

D Am
Let 'em laugh while they can
G Gm D
Let 'em spin, let 'em scatter in the wind
F# G
I have been to the movies, I've seen how it ends
Gm D
And the joke's on them
Verse 2:
D Am
You get discouraged, don't you, girl?
G D
It's your brother's world for a while longer
D
We gotta dance with the devil on a river
Am
To beat the stream
G D
Call it living the dream, call it kicking the ladder
D
They come to kick dirt in your face
Am
To call you weak and then displace you
G D
After carrying your baby on your back across the desert
Am
I saw your eyes behind your hair
G D
And you're looking tired, but you don't look scared
Refrain:
D Am
Let 'em laugh while they can
G Gm D
Let 'em spin, let 'em scatter in the wind
F# G
I have been to the movies, I've seen how it ends
Gm D
And the joke's on them
