	        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) 
                      Em 
When your skin starts to crawl, and your fingers twitch 
                         Am                    Em 
And your veins are screaming, for some kind of fix 
                  B   Am                      Em           
Well they ask you why, you say the joker's wild 
                   Em                               
If there was only a way, to make you understand 
                            Am                       Em 
That the game you're playing, has gotten out of hand 
                     B   Am                        Em 
And when they ask you why, you say the joker's wild 
                    B    Am 
And when they ask you why 
                        Em G                       
You say the joker is wild 
                        Em G 
You say the joker is wild 
                        Em G 
You say the joker is wild 
                        Em G 
You say the joker is wild
