[C#]
[E] [A]
I [G#m] thought [C#] my jokes were better.
[G#]
You wanna know how I got these scars?
I was drinking one night in a bar.
While tipsy I bumped into a guy.
[A] Spilled his beer on [D#] his top, apologized.
[C#m] But him and his friends weren't too happy.
He smashed the bottle on the side and [C#] he grabbed me.
Dipped the shots of broken glass in [A] my mouth.
Then slammed my head into the [C#] ground.
Inspirational I know, now I never let [A] it go.
The cheats make me a freak but I want them to.
You see the tragedy would be [G#] to be like you.
[C#m] You planters, you schemers, you boring tools.
But I think I know how to bring you to my level.
When the chips are down people become [A] devils.
Sit and watch, a ship's about to blow.
And away we go.
I [C#] know.
[G#] Why you have your good for a piece?
That's just [C#] during the day.
[E] I know.
The way to get it back to come [A] out and play.
[D#] I [G#] know.
All the best cops that are easy [E] to persuade. I [G#] [C#] know.
The love of bats got to rate his modern friend.
Why so [A] curious?
[E] Why so serious?
[C#]
Life is far too [A] mysterious.
[E] Controlling will make you [C#] delirious.
No pain, [A] no gain.
[E] Let's put a smile on [C#] that pretty face.
Give up the act, play [A] my game.
[E] I'll prove being simple's [C#m] insane.
Got a pocket full of lint, lots of knives.
Using [G#] blades more personal I find.
Before they die people show you who they are.
Want to know which of your friends
are useful cowards?
I love theatrics and a good disguise.
I'm a really different type of bad guy.
This [C#] city needs a better class [A] of criminal.
Monsters have the money so trivial.
[C#] Saying that I won't have to kill [A] the bat.
Then I'll light it up in flames, give a crap.
Just trying to get close to [D#] the man in the shadows.
Am I really going to kill him?
No.
[C#] Don't you get it?
You [A] complete me.
And you're [G#] too much fun to try and bury.
[A] An unstoppable force and an [G#] immovable object.
You think we're destined to [A] do this for eternity. I [D#m] know.
Why [G#] you have your group therapy sessions during [C#] the day.
I know.
[C#m] [E] The way to get a bat to come [A] out and play.
I [E] know.
[G#] All the best cops that are easy [E] to persuade.
I [G#] know.
[C#] The love the bat's got for Rach is modern friendly.
I'm so [A] curious.
[E] Why so serious?
[C#]
Life is far too [A] mysterious.
[E] Controlling will make you [C#] delirious.
No [A] pain, no gain.
[E] Let's put a stop to this.
Smile on that [C#] pretty face.
Give up the act, play my [A] game.
I'll [E] prove being civil's [C#m] insane.
You didn't really think I would risk it all
in a fight between you and me.
I got my ace in the hole, Harvey.
I told him I don't have a plan.
I'm a dog chasing tires.
I wouldn't know what to do if I caught one.
I took Gotham's white knight
and taught him anarchy.
[C#]
I'm so [A] curious.
[E] Why so serious?
[C#]
Life is far too [A] mysterious.
Controlling will [C#m] make you delirious.
[C#]
No pain, [A] no gain.
[E] Let's put a smile on that [C#m] pretty face.
Give up the act, play my [A] game.
I'll [E] prove being civil's insane.
[G#]
I'm so [E] curious.
Why [G#m] so serious?
Life is far too [A] mysterious.
Controlling will [F#] make you delirious.
No pain, [A] no gain.
[C#m] Let's put a smile on that pretty face.
[D#m] Give up the act, play my [A] game.
[E] I'll prove being civil's [N] insane.
Thank you [F#] for watching, guys.
The Dark Knight has got to be one of my all-time favourite films,
along with Heath Ledger
as one of the best performances ever.
I spent ages watching his [B] scenes,
trying to learn the way he talks for the song.
I hope I did it justice.
How many lines from the film did you actually spot
me singing in the song?
I'm pretty sure I went through nearly his entire dialogue.
[Em] Now, I'm about to go and see
the new Joker film,
which I can't [G#] wait for.
It's got such good reviews.
There will, of course, be a song for that,
hopefully next week,
but obviously I've got to watch [Em] it first.
Also, the [E] Dark Knight theme will continue
with a Batman song tomorrow night,
so stay tuned for that.
And obviously next week
there will be more IT [N] and more Stranger Things.
Robin and Steve are finally done.
I know, you've been waiting for that for ages.
But yeah, I love you all.
Thank you very much for watching.
I'll see you again soon.
Bye [F#]-bye.
Life [A#] is going well,
so [D#] I can't wait to [B] see
what life will [F#] bring.
You [A#] call [B] out your name,
[G#] ha ha ha ha
[F#] Life [A#] is going well,
the dark [D#] comes in,
you [B] start to scream and
then [N] you fall.
