Don't call pretty Peggy,
C
She can't hear you no
G
more
Don't leave no message
C
Round her back
G
door
They say the
C
old laughing lady
Been here be

don't keep time

She don't count

G
You can't have a cupboard
C
If there ain't no
G
wall
You got to move
C
There's no time for you to stall
They say the

lady
Am
Dropped
C
by to

And
D
when she leaves
Am
She leaves
C
nothing at
G
all
verse: (without the run through Am)
G
See the drunkard of the village
C
Fallin' on his
G
feet
He can't tell his ankle
C
From the rest of his
G
feet
He loves his
C
old laughing
020010
lady
Am
Because the
C
taste is so
G
sweet
Bm
But the
D
laughin' lady's loving
Ain't the
Am
kind he can
C
keep

G
There's a
G
fever on the freeway
C
Blacks out the
G
night
There's a slippin' on the stairways
Just
C
don't feel right
G
There's a
C
rumblin' in the bedroom
And a
C
flashin' of
G
light
D
There's the old laughing lady
Every
C
thing is all right
G
D
There's the old laughing lady
Every

thing is all right

#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...
