[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.]

[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...)

[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]
