F#m F#m (x4)
[Verse 1]
C#7
C# 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]
F#m
Why did the chicken go across the road
F#m
To get to the other side?
F#m
I'm still waiting for the punchline
F#m
And whoever said, the grass always grows
F#m
Greener on the other side
F#m
I'm still waiting for the punchline
[Verse 2]
C#7
The good ol' days I was known to wear a smile
B5 C#5 B5 C#5 F#/A#
Like all good things they've gone out of style
C#7
I will admit, usually a quick with I found me amusing
What used to be, no longer are amusing
[Chorus]
F#m
Why did the chicken go across the road
F#m
To get to the other side?
F#m
I'm still waiting for the punchline
F#m
And whoever said, the grass always grows
F#m
Greener on the other side
F#m
I'm still waiting for the punchline

[Verse 3]
C#7 B5 C#5 B5 C#5 C#7
It's nothing that you said, no, nothing that you did
C#5 B5 C#5 B5 C#5 B5 C#5 B5 C#5 F#/A# C#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]
F#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
