Old Laughing Lady : Unplugged

G C G

G
Don't call pretty Peggy,

C G
She can't hear you no more


Don't leave no message

C G
Round her back door

C
They say the old laughing lady

G
Been here before

D C
She don't keep time

G
She don't count score

G C G

G
You can't have a cupboard

C G
If there ain't no wall


You got to move

C
There's no time for you to stall

C 020010 Am
They say the old laughing lady

C D G
Dropped by to call

D Am
And when she leaves

C G
She leaves nothing at all


verse: (without the run through Am)

G
See the drunkard of the village

C G
Fallin' on his feet


He can't tell his ankle

C G
From the rest of his feet

C 020010 Am
He loves his old laughing lady

C G Bm
Because the taste is so sweet

D
But the laughin' lady's loving

Am C G
Ain't the kind he can keep

D Am C G


G
There's a fever on the freeway

C G
Blacks out the night


There's a slippin' on the stairway

C G
Just don't feel right

C
There's a rumblin' in the bedroom

C G
And a flashin' of light

D
There's the old laughing lady

C G
Everything is all right

D
There's the old laughing lady

C G
Everything is all right

D Am C G


notes: the quick change to C and G at the end on many lines is omitted
it occurs everywhere but 'if there ain't no wall / you got to move...'
the run through from C to Am via the B note is a familiar ny trick...
