A Sense Of Humor

      F
Every night another woman
      Bb
Every day a different town
       C
If I'm not accused of speeding
                      F
I'm accused of coming down
With a legal dose of something
         Bb
That you heard was going 'round
        C                               F
And you wondered why I lost my Sense of Humor.

      F
Every song another record
      Bb
Every day just like a clock
        C
Knowing well I've had to take it
                      F
Till I make it to the top
With the devil right behind me
       Bb
And my heart about to stop
         C                               F
Then you wondered why I lost my Sense of Humor.

       Bb
Twenty years I was in prison
     F
More than that I was alone
     Bb
Some lily-white reporter
                            C
Thinks it's time that I was stoned
        F
Without sin, he wrote the story
       Bb
And it chilled me to the bone
        C                               F
Then he wondered why I lost my Sense of Humor.

            F
I shaved my beard and cut my hair off
         Bb
It don't matter anyhow
       C
It was truth that told the answers
                         F
To the questions up till now
"Crucify him," someone shouted
         Bb
From the safety of the crowd
          C                               F
Then they wondered why I lost my Sense of Humor.

               F
Hey, take them crosses from my doorstep
           Bb
There's no reason to my rhyme
          C
Everybody knows somebody
                        F
Will take care of me in time
I made friends of all you stand for
        Bb
But the blind can't lead the blind
        C                               F
Just be glad I haven't lost my Sense of Humor.

        C                               F
Just be glad I haven't lost my Sense of Humor
'Cause if I ever catch you I'm gonna kick your ass.
