170 BPM - From Outskirts. [Intro 1] E X4 Em (Stop) [Intro 2] Em X8 Am X4 Em X4 G X2 Am X2 Em X4 [Verse 1]
                            Em   Em                        Em
You're feeling over the hill   -   chasing powder and pills

Em                             Am   Am
  But you don't mind the taste   -   of the slow burning waste

Em   Em                    B      Am
       Until you feel like trash,  you might as well have a gas

Em   Em                     B     Am                                Em   Em
       Until you feel like trash,  you might as well have a blast
[Verse 2]
                      Em Em                  Em
Deep down in your heart - you know you can't hide

Em                           Am          Am              Em
  Still you know what you're running from, better than I

Em                     B   Am                        Em   Em
  And when they ask you why, you say the joker's wild

                     B    Am
And when they ask you why
[Chorus]
                     Em   G              Am    C
You say the joker is wild   the joker is wild

             Em     G              A    Am  Em X4
the joker is wild     the joker is wild
[Interlude] Em X4 Em X8 Am X4 Em X4 G X2 A X2 Em X4 Em X4 [Verse 3]
                         Em    Em                      Em    Em
When your skin starts to crawl, and your fingers twitch

                    Am      Am                 Em
And your veins are screaming, for some kind of fix

Em                     B   Am                       Em
 Well they ask you why,      you say the joker's wild

Em                   Em  Em                     Em
 If there was only a way, to make you understand

Em                     Am     Am                      Em
  That the game you're playing, has gotten out of hand

Em                         B   Am                        Em   Em
  And when they ask you why  -  you say the joker's wild

                 B    Am
And when they ask why
[Chorus]
                     Em   G             Am   C
You say the joker is wild  the joker is wild

             Em   G              A     Am
the joker is wild   the joker is wild
