Laughing With Chords

Bbm                  Fm
   No one laughs at God in a hospital
D#                           G# F#m Fm
   No one laughs at God in a war
                         Cm
   No one’s laughing at God
                                C#
   When they’re starving or freezing or so very poor
 
No one laughs at God when the doctor calls
After some routine tests
No one’s laughing at God
when it’s gotten real late
And their kid’s not back from that party yet
 
No one laughs at God when their airplane
Starts to uncontrollably shake
No one’s laughing at God
When they see the one they love hand in hand
with someone else and they hope that they’re mistaken
No one laughs at God when the cops knock on their door
And they say “We’ve got some bad new, sir,”
No one’s laughing at God
When there’s a famine, fire or flood
 
                  Bbm  Fm
   But God can be funny
                   D#                       G#                   Fm
   At a cocktail party while listening to a good God-themed joke or
                           C#
   When the crazies say he hates us
                              D#
   and they get so red in the head
 
   You think that they’re about to choke
 
   God can be funny
   When told he’ll give you money if you just pray the right way
   And when presented like a genie
   Who does magic like Houdini
   Or grants wishes like Jiminy Cricket and Santa Claus
D#                 G#
  God can be so hilarious
  Bbm  Fm  D#  G#
  Ha ha, 
  Bbm  Fm  D#  G#
  ha ha
 
No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
No one’s laughing at God
when they’ve lost all they got
And they don’t know what for
 
No one laughs at God on the day they realize
that the last sight they’ll ever see is a pair of hateful eyes
No one’s laughing at God
When they’re saying their goodbyes
 
But God can be funny
At a cocktail party while listening to a good God-themed joke or
When the crazies say he hates us and they get so red in the head
you think that they’re about to choke
God can be funny
When told he’ll give you money if you just pray the right way
And when presented like a genie
Who does magic like Houdini
Or grants wishes like Jiminy Cricket and Santa Claus
God can be so hilarious
 
No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
(repeat)
No one’s laughing at God in a hospital
No one’s laughing at God in a war
 
No one’s laughing at God
When they’re starving or freezing or so very poor
 
No one’s laughing at God
(repeat)
We’re all “laughing with God”
