G         Bm             Cmaj7
Could the joke be now on me?
         C                 D7
Whom the Gods destroy they first make mad.

G  F#m Em


G      Bm           Cmaj7
Do you mock my misery?
       C               D7
Inconsequential in the scheme of things.

G  F#m Em


    Cmaj7          Bm
For all that joy demands,
          G                  C               Em
You could count the breaks I got on just one hand.

[Refrain]

G        F#m              Bm                   G   C
Find I'm reaching for the mountain that's just too high;
        Bm                   G C
For the truth that turns out a lie;
        F#m           G         Bm        Cmaj7   C
For the one who makes good my escape from sorrow, hey!
         Bm              G      F#m Cmaj7
Are they saying that the joke's on  me?

C    Bm              G C
Over mountains below I fly,

Found the truth that you just can't buy.
     Bm        G         C  Cmaj7
Made good my escape from sorrow.
