A                                              A7+  
Standin' on the water casting your bread
  Bm/A                                            E/A                                                                    A  
While the eyes of the idol with the iron head are glowing
A                                                         A7+  
Distant ships sailin' into the mist
Bm/A                                                                         E/A  
You were born with a snake in both of your fists
                                                                A  
While a hurricane was blowing
Bm                                    E                                              A  
Freedom, just around the corner for you
Bm                                                         E                                                    A                    D  
But with truth so far off, what good would it do?
  E                                                                 D  
Jokerman dance to the nightingale's tune

Oh, oh, oh              Jokerman
A                                            A7+  
So swiftly the sun sets in the sky
     Bm/A                                 E/A                                 A  
You rise up and say goodbye to no one
A                                                 A7+  
Fools rush in where angels fear to tread
Bm/A                                                                                      E/A  
Both of their futures so full of dread
                                          A  
You don't show one
Bm                              E                                                 A  
Shedding off one more layer of skin
Bm                                      E                                                                      A              D  
Keeping one step ahead of the persecutor within
  E                                                            D  
Jokerman dance to the nightingale's tune
  A                    E/G#                      F#m                      D

You're a man of the mountains, you can walk on the clouds
Bm/A                                    E/A                                                    A  
Manipulator of crowds, you're a dream twister
A                                                      A7+  
You go to Sodom and Gomorrah, but what do you care?
Bm/A                            E/A  
Ain't nobody there
                                                                        A  
Would want to marry your sister
Bm                                                                 E                                                            A  
A friend to the martyr, a friend to the woman of shame
Bm                                                                      E                                                                                      A    D  
You look into the fiery furnace - see the rich man without any name
  E                                                                 D

Well the book of Leviticus and Deuteronomy
Bm/A                                                         E/A                                                              A  
The law of the jungle and the sea, are your only teachers
A                                                         A7+  
In the smoke of the twilight on a milk-white steed
  Bm/A                                                              E/A                                                 A  
Michelangelo indeed could have carved out your features
Bm                                                                 E                                                    A  
Resting in the fields far from the turbulent space
Bm                                                      E                                                                                              A      D  
Half asleep neath the stars with a small dog licking your face

Bm/A                                                         E/A                                                                              A  
Preacher man seeks the same, Who'll get there first is uncertain
A                                                    A7+  
Matchsticks and water cannons teargas, padlocks
Bm/A                                                 E/A                                              A  
Molotav cocktails and rocks, Behind every curtain
Bm                                                    E                                                                    A  
False-hearted judges dyin' in the webs that they spin
Bm                                                      E                                                 A                         D  
Only a matter of time til night comes steppin' in
                        E                                         D

Oh, oh, oh              Jokerman
A                                                            A7+  
It's a shadowy world - skies are slippery grey
Bm/A                                         E/A                                                                                                 A  
A woman just gave birth to a prince today, and dressed him in scarlet
A                                                                         A7+  
He'll put the priest in his pocket - put the blade to the heat
Bm/A                                            E/A                                                                                                         A  
Take the motherless children off the street, And place them at the feet of a harlot
Bm                                 E                                    A  
Oh Jokerman you know what he wants
Bm                                    E                                              A              D
