D D2 D4 D5 Don't leave no message 'round her back door. G D D2 They say the old laughin' lady been here before. D4 D3 G She don't keep time, she don't count score. D D2 D4 D2 You can't have a cupboard if there ain't no wall. D D2 D4 D5 You got to move, there's no time left to stall. G D D2 They say the old laughin' lady dropped by to call. D4 D3 G RIFF When she leaves, she leaves nothing at all. D D2 D4 D2 See the drunkard of the village falling on the street. D D2 D4 D5 Can't tell his ankles from the rest of his feet. G D D2 He loves his old laughin' lady 'cause her taste is so sweet. D4 D3 G But the laughin' lady's lovin', ain't the kind he can keep. D D2 D4 D2 There's a fever on the freeway, blacks out the night. D D2 D4 D5 There's a slippin' on the stairway, just don't feel right. G D D2 And there's a rumblin' in the bedroom and a flashin' of light. D4 D3 G F There's the old laughing lady, everything is all right.
