Introduction:
G
Don' t call pretty Peggy,
C G
She can' t hear you no more
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
You can' t have a cupboard
C G
If there ain' t no wall
C
There' s no time for you to stall
C 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
G
See the drunkard of the village
C G
Fallin' on his feet
C G
From the rest of his feet
C 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
G
There' s a fever on the freeway
C G
Blacks out the night
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
E
Oh hello Mr. Soul I droped by to pick up a reason
E
For the thought that I' d caught that my head is the event of the season
A E
Why in crowds just a trace of my face should seem so pleasin'
D A E
I' ll cop out to the change but a stranger is putting the tease on
I was down on a frown when a messenger brought me a letter
In a while well the smile on my face turned to plaster
D A
Is it strange I should change? I don' t know
D A
Is it strange I should change? I don' t know
E
You know I lose, you know I win
A
You know I called for the state I' m in
E
It' s just a game you see me play
G D A
Only real in the way that I feel from day to day
Although the answer is not unknown
G D E G
No the world on a string doesn' t mean a thing
G D E
Only real in the way that I feel from day to day
D
Aurora Borealis
D
The icy sky at night
Em
Paddles cut the water
D
In a long and hurried flight
A C G D
From the white man to the fields of green
A C G D
and the homeland we' ve never seen
They massacred the buffalo
(verse:)
And maybe Marlon Brando
A C G D
Pocahontas

F
You can say the soul is gone
Dm/G
And the feelings just not there
Bb C F C Bb C
Not like it was so long ago
F
On the empty page before you
Dm/G
You can fill in what you care
Bb C F C Bb C
Try to make it good before you go
Take the simple case of the sarge
Bb F
And I' m singing for the stringman
Bb F
Who lately lost his wife
Bb Dm
There is no dearer friend of mine
C F
That I know in this life
F C Bb C
All those things
F C Bb C
He' s a stringman
F
All those strings to pull

Am G
Once I thought I saw you in a crowded, hazy bar,
F Em G
Dancing on the light from star to star.
Am G
Far across the moon beams, I know that' s who you are.
F Em G
I saw your brown eyes turning once to fire.
C G F G C G F G
You are like a hurricane: there' s calm in your eye.
C G F G
And I' m getting blown away.
F
There' s somewhere safer where the feelings stay.
Am G F Em G
I wanna love you but I' m getting blown away.
I am just a dreamer, but you are just a dream,
D
I caught you knocking at my cellar door,
Em7 Gm+ Bb
I love you baby can I have some more
C F E4 E
Oh oh the damage done
The Needle and the Damage Done : Unplugged
C G F
There is a town in north Ontario,
C G F
With dream comfort memory to spare,
C G F
And in my mind I still need a place to go,
C G F
All my changes were there,
C G F
Helpless, helpless, helpless
C G F
Baby can you hear me now?
C G F
The chains are locked and tied across the door,
C G F
Baby, sing with me somehow.
C G F
Blue, blue windows behind the stars,
Yellow moon on the rise,
C G F
Helpless, helpless, helpless

G D
Come a little bit closer, hear what I have to say
G D
Just like children sleepin' we could dream this night away.
G D
But there' s a full moon rising, let' s go dancing in the light.
G D
We know where the music' s playing, lets go out and feel the night.
G A Em
Because I' m still in love with you, I wanna see you dance again,
A D
Because I' m still in love with you, on this harvest moon.

Somewhere on a desert highway, she rides a Harley Davidson
