VERSE1
A funny thing to [D]do,
Is everyone like [G]you,
'Cause people [G/F#]seldom [Em]change,
All just stay the [A7]same.
A funny thing to [D]say,
Suppose you're just that [G]way,
Although you're [G/F#]sure you're [Em]sure,
There really is no [A7]cure.
CHORUS
A funny kind of [Dadd9]way,
A funny kind of [D7add9]day,
You're funny all the [G]time,
Do you want a [G/F#]piece of [Em]mine.
'Cause I've seen it [D]all before,
When you're closing all[A] the doors,
It's not funny any[D] more.[G][D]
VERSE2
[A]A funny thing to [D]do,
Because the sky was [G]blue,
You ran [G/F#]away for [Em]good,
'Cause no one under[A7]stood.
The funny things you [D]said,
Because the sky was [G]red,
It all went [G/F#]to your [Em]head,
Because the sky was [A7]red.
CHORUS - Repeat
CHORUS - Repeat
VERSE3
A funny thing to [D]do,
Is everyone like [G]you,
'Cause people [G/F#]seldom [Em]change,
They all just stay the [A7]same.[D]
