Joke's On You

Charlotte Lawrence


Tom: A

[Intro] Dm  A  Dm  A

Dm
Drag me to death, like a lit cigarette

Took my last breath, like the smoke from my lips
A
I've lied for you and I liked it too

But my knees are bruised from kneeling to you
Dm
I've had enough, but you're too hard to quit

We've had our fun, now your sugar makes me sick
A
I've lied for you and I liked it too

But my makeup's ruined
        Bb
And now I'm laughing through my tears
   F
I'm crying through my fear

      A
But, baby, if I had to choose
               Dm  C  Bb  F
The joke's on you
               Dm  C  Bb  F
The joke's on you
          Bb
God knows I've tried to be kind
                 F
But I won't just lay down and die
               A
Wearing a fake smile
               Dm C Bb
The joke's on you
Dm
My heart's gone bad, now it won't beat for you

You had your laugh, now I won't play the fool
A
I've lied for you and I liked it too

But I'm black and blue from bleeding for you
Dm
You struck the match, burned me out so fast

Look what we had, now it's turned to ash

A
I've lied for you and I liked it too

But my makeup's ruined
             Bb
And now I'm laughing through my tears
      F
I'm crying through my fear
      A
But, baby, if I had to choose
               Dm  C  Bb  F
The joke's on you
               Dm  C  Bb  F
The joke's on you
          Bb
God knows I've tried to be kind
                F
But I won't just lay down and die
                A
Wearing a fake smile
                 Dm
The joke's on you
