A5
Don't you love the sound
B5                    E5
 Of the last laugh my friend
               A5
Don't you love the sound
B5                    E5 
 Of the last laugh at the end
A5                        B5
  Down in the gutter with the mad old soldiers
E5            E5              E5   B5
 Down in the scuppers with the drunken sailors
A5                        B5
  Down in the gutter with the mad old soldiers
       E5                B5
But the last laugh, baby is yours
                  A5       B5
And don't you love the sound
                   E5
Of the last laugh going down


                   A5         B5
Games you thought you'd learned
                 E5
You neither lost nor won
                  A5      B5
Dreams have crashed and burned
                    E5
You still keep on keeping on
A5                       B5
 Out on the highway with the road gang working
E5          E5                 E5       B5 
 Up on the mountain with the cold wind blowing
A5                        B5
  Out on the highway with the road band working
       E5                B5
But the last laugh, baby is yours
                   A5      B5
And don't you love the sound
                     E5
Of the last laugh going down

A5                        B5
  They had you crying but you came up smiling
E5              E5             E5     B5 
 They had you crawling and you came up flying
A5                        B5
  They had you crying and you came up smiling
        E5                  B5
And the last laugh, baby is yours
                   A5       B5
And don't you love the sound
                   E5
Of the last laugh going down
                  A5       B5
Yeh don't you love the sound
                  E5
Of the last laugh going down
