Verse 1:
E minorEm     D MajorD
Spoon in spoon
C majorC       E MajorE
Stirring my coffee
  A minorAm    D MajorD
I thought of you
   G+G      D/F#D/F#
And turned to the gate
  E minorEm   D MajorD    C majorC       E MajorE
And on my way came up with the answers
A minorAm     D MajorD
I scratched my head
     G+G      D/F#D/F#
And the answers were gone

Verse 2:
   E minorEm   D MajorD
From hand to hand,
C majorC       E MajorE
Wrist to the elbow
  A minorAm  D MajorD
Red blood sand
G+G       D/F#D/F#
Could Dad be God?
E minorEm     D MajorD    C majorC     E MajorE
Crosses cross hung out like a wet rag
A minorAm      D MajorD
Forgive you? Why?
   G+G     D/F#D/F#
You hung me out to dry

Chorus:
E minorEm   D MajorD  C majorC  E MajorE
 And maybe I'm crazy
   A minorAm     D MajorD
But laughing out loud
     G+G  D/F#D/F#
Makes the pain pass by
E minorEm   D MajorD   C majorC        E MajorE
 And maybe you're a little crazy
   A minorAm     D MajorD      G+G  D/F#D/F#
But laughing out loud makes it all subside
C majorC
Holding, I'm holding
C majorC
I'm still falling,
C majorC
I'm still falling

Spoon in spoon
C majorC       E MajorE
Stirring my coffee
  A minorAm    D MajorD
I thought of this
   G+G      D/F#D/F#
And turned to the gate
  E minorEm   D MajorD       C majorC      E MajorE
But on my way crack lightning and thunder
A minorAm     D MajorD
I hid my head
     G+G      D/F#D/F#
and the storm slipped away, well

Chorus:
E minorEm   D MajorD  C majorC  E MajorE
  maybe I'm crazy
   A minorAm     D MajorD
But laughing out loud
     G+G  D/F#D/F#
Makes the pain pass by
E minorEm   D MajorD   C majorC        E MajorE
 And maybe you're a little crazy
   A minorAm     D MajorD      G+G  D/F#D/F#
And laughing out loud makes it all alright

BANJO SOLO:

Verse 4:
  E minorEm     D MajorD
From time to time
C majorC       E MajorE
Minutes and hours
  A minorAm    D MajorD
Some move ahead while
   G+G      D/F#D/F#
Some lag behind
     E minorEm   D MajorD
It's like the balloon that
 C majorC      E MajorE
Rise and then vanish
   A minorAm   D MajorD
This drop of hope
   G+G       D/F#D/F#
That falls from his eyes

Bridge:

Verse 5:

E minorEm     D MajorD
Spoon in spoon
C majorC       E MajorE
Stirring my coffee
  A minorAm    D MajorD
I think of this
   G+G      D/F#D/F#
And turned to go away
  E minorEm   D MajorD       C majorC   E MajorE
But as I walk there're voices behind me saying
A minorAm     D MajorD
 Sinners sin
G+G    D/F#D/F#
Come now and play
