Laughing With Regina Spektor
Thanks to gordonmjulian for laying down the bare bones.
Just with the after G chord, to shake it up a little and upset people,
move the bass note on G down a fret
E-----3------ --------3------------------------------------| B------------ ---------------------------------------------| G------------THEN---------------------------------------------| D------------ ---------------------------------------------| A-----2------ ---------------------------------------------| E-----3------ --------2------------------------------------|
tricky, ain't it.
Enjoy.
Capo 1st.
[Am] No one laughs at [Em]God in a hospital
[D] No one laughs at God in a war[G]
No one?s l[Em]aughing at God
When they?re s[Bm]tarving or freezing or [C/G]so very poor
[Am]No one laughs at [Em]God when the doctor calls
[D]After some routine te[G]sts
No one?s lau[Em]ghing at God
when it?s go[Bm]tten real late
And their k[C/G]id?s not back from that party yet
[Am]No one laughs at [Em]God when their airplane
[D]Starts to uncontrollably sh[G]ake
No one?s lau[Em]ghing at God
When they s[Bm]ee the one they love hand in [C/G]hand
with someone else and they hope that they?re mistaken
[Am]No one laughs at [Em]God when the cops knock on their door
[D]And they say ?We?ve got some b[G]ad news, sir,?
No one?s lau[Em]ghing at God
When there?s a fa[Bm]mine, fire or f[C/G]lood
Chorus
But God can be[Am] funn[Em]y
At a cocktail pa[D]rty when listening to a good G[G]od-themed joke, or
Or when the cr[Em]azies say He hates us
And they[C/G] get so red in the head you think they?re ?[D]bout to choke
God can be [Am]funn[Em]y,
When told he?ll give you [D]money if you just pray the r[G]ight way
And when [Em]presented like a genie who does m[C/G]agic like Houdini
Or grants wi[D]shes like Jiminy Cricket and Santa Claus
God [D]can be so hilarious
Ha [Am]ha[Em] [D] [G]
Ha [Am]ha[Em] [D] [G]
[Am]No one laughs at [Em]God in a hospital
[D]No one laughs at God in a w[G]ar
No one?s l[Em]aughing at God
when they?ve l[Bm]ost all they got
And they d[C/G]on?t know what for
[Am]No one laughs at G[Em]od on the day they realize
[D]that the last sight they?ll ever see is a [G]pair of hateful eyes
No one?s la[Em]ughing at God
When they?re s[C/G]aying their goodbyes
Chorus
But God can be[Am] fuuuuuunny[Em]
At a cocktail pa[D]rty when listening to a good G[G]od-themed joke, or
Or when the cr[Em]azies say He hates us
And they[C/G] get so red in the head you think they?re ?[D]bout to choke
God can be [Am]fuuuuuunny,[Em]
When told he?ll give you [D]money if you just pray the r[G]ight way
And when [Em]presented like a genie who does m[C/G]agic like Houdini
Or grants wi[D]shes like Jiminy Cricket and Santa Claus
God [D]can be so hilarious
[Am]No one laughs at [Em]God in a hospital
[D]No one laughs at G[G]od in a war
[Am]No one?s laughing at [Em]God in a hospital
[D]No one?s laughing at [G]God in a war
No one?s la[Em]ughing at God
When they?re st[Bm]arving or freezing or so v[C/G]ery poor
(carry on C/G chord)
No one?s laughing at God
No one's laughing at God
No one's laughing at God
We?re all laughing w[G]ith God
