Joker^?s Wild
Blue Rodeo
album: Outskirts
transcribed by Kevin Cumming
Em
You^?re feeling over the hill, chasing powder and pills
Am Em
Still you don^?t mind the taste, of the slow burning waste
B Am Em
Until you feel like trash, you might as well have a blast
B Am Em
Until you feel that crash, you might as well have a blast
Em
Deep down in your heart, you know you can^?t hide
Am Em
Still you know what you^?re running from, better than I
B Am Em
And when they ask you why, you say the joker^?s wild
B Am
And when they ask why
Em G
You say the joker is wild
Am C
You say the joker is wild
Em G
You say the joker is wild
Am C G
You say the joker is wild
(the rest of the song follows the same chord progression)
When your skin starts to crawl, and your fingers twitch
And your veins are screaming, for some kind of fix
Well they ask you why, you say the joker^?s wild
If there was only a way, to make you understand
That the game you^?re playing, has gotten out of hand
And when they ask you why, you say the joker^?s wild
And when they ask you why
You say the joker is wild
You say the joker is wild
You say the joker is wild
You say the joker is wild
