Joking Ukulele tab

	  {The net result of all the instruments is G Em7  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 
You said the world was magic, I was wide-eyed and laughing 
 
               D 
  We were dancing up to the bright side 
 
   G                      Em7 
Forget about your ego, forget about your pride 
 
                         D          D 
  And you will never have to compromise 
 
                   G     Em7                       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                       D 
And you were only joking, you were only joking, brother

You were only joking,                     you were only joking,       brother

{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                       D 
And you were only joking, you were only joking, brother 
 
               G     Em7                       D 
You were only joking, you were only joking, brother

And you were only joking,               you were only joking, brother

You were joking,                      you were only joking, brother 
    (You kissed me like a soldier...)         (I'm a dying man...) 
 
                   G           Em7                                  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
