[Verse 1]
A#7
A# you might say, "Hey, I lost my sense of humor"
Well, I'm quite surprised I didn't lose it sooner
Why waste my breath on anything less than talk so trivial?
As a man I ran out of material
[Chorus]
D#m
Why did the chicken go across the road
D#m
To get to the other side?
D#m
I'm still waiting for the punchline
D#m
And whoever said, the grass always grows
D#m
Greener on the other side
D#m
I'm still waiting for the punchline
[Verse 2]
A#7
The good ol' days I was known to wear a smile
G#5 A#5 G#5 A#5 D#/G
Like all good things they've gone out of style
A#7
I will admit, usually a quick with I found me amusing
What used to be, no longer are amusing
[Chorus]
D#m
Why did the chicken go across the road
D#m
To get to the other side?
D#m
I'm still waiting for the punchline
D#m
And whoever said, the grass always grows
D#m
Greener on the other side
D#m
I'm still waiting for the punchline

[Verse 3]
A#7 G#5 A#5 G#5 A#5 A#7
It's nothing that you said, no, nothing that you did
A#5 G#5 A#5 G#5 A#5 G#5 A#5 G#5 A#5 D#/G A#7
It must have been a bad joke that's gone over my head
What me worry, another tragedy
Ladder plus time, equals comedy
[Chorus]
D#m
Why can't I get to the other side?
I'm still waiting for the punchline
And whoever said, the grass always grows
Greener on the other line
I'm still waiting for the punchline
