 Old Laughing Lady : Unplugged

 G (320003@1)  C (x32010@1)name="chord_320003@1">G

 G (320003@1)Don't call pretty Peggy,

 C (x32010@1)                   G (320003@1)She can't hear you no more


 Don't leave no message

 C (x32010@1)            G (320003@1)Round her back door

              C (x32010@1)They say the old laughing lady

             G (320003@1)Been here before

     D (xx0232@1)             C (x32010@1)She don't keep time

                 G (320003@1)She don't count score

 G (320003@1)C (x32010@1)name="chord_320003@1">G

 G (320003@1)You can't have a cupboard

 C (x32010@1)               G (320003@1)If there ain't no  wall


 You got to move

 C (x32010@1)There's no time for you to stall

              C (x32010@1)          020010 Am (x02210@1)They say the old laughing lady

         C (x32010@1)   D (xx0232@1)  G (320003@1)Dropped by to call

     D (xx0232@1)             Am (x02210@1)And when she leaves

            C (x32010@1)        G (320003@1)She leaves nothing at all


 verse: (without the run through Am)

 G (320003@1)See the drunkard of the village

 C (x32010@1)            G (320003@1)Fallin' on his feet


 He can't tell his ankle

 C (x32010@1)                  G (320003@1)From the rest of his feet

              C (x32010@1)          020010 Am (x02210@1)He loves his old laughing lady

             C (x32010@1)         G (320003@1)   Bm (x24432@1)Because the taste is so sweet

         D (xx0232@1)But the laughin' lady's loving

           Am (x02210@1)        C (x32010@1)  G (320003@1)Ain't the kind he can keep

 D (xx0232@1)name="chord_x02210@1">Am C (x32010@1)name="chord_320003@1">G


           G (320003@1)There's a fever on the freeway

 C (x32010@1)            G (320003@1)Blacks out the night


 There's a slippin' on the stairway

      C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)Just don't feel right

           C (x32010@1)There's a rumblin' in the bedroom

       C (x32010@1)         G (320003@1)And a flashin' of light

 D (xx0232@1)There's the old laughing lady

      C (x32010@1)                G (320003@1)Everything is all right

 D (xx0232@1)There's the old laughing lady

      C (x32010@1)                G (320003@1)Everything is all right

 D (xx0232@1)name="chord_x02210@1">Am C (x32010@1)name="chord_320003@1">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...
