[Verse 1]
A7A 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]
DmWhy did the chicken go across the road
DmTo get to the other side?
DmI'm still waiting for the punchline
DmAnd whoever said, the grass always grows
DmGreener on the other side
DmI'm still waiting for the punchline
[Verse 2]
A7The good ol' days I was known to wear a smile
Like all good G5thiA5ngs tG5heyA5've gone out of sD/F#tyle
A7I will admit, usually a quick with I found me amusing
What used to be, no longer are amusing
[Chorus]
DmWhy did the chicken go across the road
DmTo get to the other side?
DmI'm still waiting for the punchline
DmAnd whoever said, the grass always grows
DmGreener on the other side
DmI'm still waiting for the punchline

What me worry, another tragedy
Ladder plus time, equals comedy
[Chorus]
DmWhy 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
