JOKING (Amy Ray)
 ----------------
 [The net result of all the instruments is G Em7 C(9) D, which you can
  play as 320033 022033 x32033 x00232, but actually, Amy just plays
  G Em C D, or 320003 022000 x32010 x00232.  In other words, Amy never
  plays the D variations; that's Emily's part, way up high on the neck.]
 
 G  Em7  C(9)  D     G  Em7  C(9)  Dsus-D-D(9)-D
 [intro]
 
               G                      Em7
 You said the world was magic, I was wide-eyed and laughing
 
 C(9)               D
   We were dancing up to the bright side
 
    G                      Em7
 Forget about your ego, forget about your pride
 
 C(9)                         D          D
   And you will never have to compromise
 
                    G     Em7             C(9)          Dsus-D-D(9)-D
 And you were only joking, you were only joking, brother
 
 We talked about our mothers, kissed the wounds of our fathers
 I could've been your sister, I would've been your brother
 You kissed me like I was a soldier headed for war
 I'm a dying man, but I don't know what for [stop]
 
                    G     Em7             C(9)          D
 And you were only joking, you were only joking, brother
 
                G               Em7                 C(9)                      D
 You were only joking,                     you were only joking,       brother
                       (Wide-eyed and laughing)                  (Dancing...)
 
 G  Em7  C(9)  D    G  Em7  C(9)  D    G  Em7  C(9)  D
 [guitar solo]
 
 Gravel and glass on the bottom of my feet
 I bruised my heels on the swollen street
 We were girls in bars, boys on the town
 Bumping like a pinball off a careless crowd
 
 You said good friends are hard to come by
 I laughed and bought you a beer, it's too corny to cry
 Well, sentiment given or sentiment lost
 You shake it off with a smirk and a toss [stop]
 
                    G     Em7             C(9)          D
 And you were only joking, you were only joking, brother
 
                G     Em7             C(9)          D
 You were only joking, you were only joking, brother
 
                    G                 Em7               C(9)             D
 And you were only joking,               you were only joking, brother
                    (Gravel and glass...)         (I bruised my heels...)
 
           G                        Em7               C(9)             D
 You were joking,                      you were only joking, brother
     (You kissed me like a soldier...)         (I'm a dying man...)
 
                    G           Em7                        C(9)          D
 And you were only joking,                  you were only joking, brother
                     (...dying man, but I don't know what for...)
 
                   D                  D [stop]
 And you were only, and you were only, and you were only
 
  G    Em7  C(9)      Dsus-D-D(9)-D     G [stop]   n.c.
 Joking,        brother                            One two three four...
 
 G  Em7  C(9)  D     G  Em7  C(9)  D
 [instrumental]
 
 G       Em7     C(9)    D
 Sha-la, sha-la, sha-la, sha-la
 
 G                   Em7          C(9)                    D
 Sha-la,             sha-la,      sha-la,                 sha-la
     (Wide-eyed and laughing)         (Dancing up to the bright side)
 
 [repeat and fade]
