RE MIm/RE REmaj7Don't leave no message 'round her back door.
SOL/RE RE MIm/REThey say the "Old Laughing Lady" been here before.
She don't keep time, she don't count score.
RE SOLm7 LAm7 REYou can't have a cupboard if there ain't no wall.
You got to move, There's no time left to stall.
They say the "Old Laughing Lady" dropped by to call.
When she leaves, she leaves nothing at all.
REmaj7 REm7 REmaj7 REm7 SOL/RE REmaj7 REm7 REmaj7 REm7 SOL/RE RESee the drunkyard of the village falling on the street.
Can't tell his ankles from the rest of his feet.
He loves his old laughing lady 'cause her taste is so sweet.
But the laughing lady's lovin', ain't the kind he can keep.
There's a fever on the freeway, blacks out the night.
There's a slipping on the stairway, just don't feel right.
And there's a rumbling in the bedroom and a flashing of light.

notes: the quick change to C and G at the end of 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...
LAddedNeil embellishes the G chords by hammering on the
E note on the second fret of the D string with his
index finger.
I also believe that he plays some of his G chords
in the D chord shape at the 7th fret (G/D).
Strum loosely with an easy feel.
