Don't you love the sound
B                      E
 Of the last laugh my friend
                   A
Don't you love the sound
B                         E 
 Of the last laugh at the end
A                             B
  Down in the gutter with the mad old soldiers
E            E/Eb               E/C#   B
 Down in the scuppers with the drunken sailors
A                               B
  Down in the gutter with the mad old soldiers
         E                  B7
But the last laugh, baby is yours
                        A       B
And don't you love the sound

Games you thought you'd learned
                     E
You neither lost nor won
                        A       B
Dreams have crashed and burned
                          E
You still keep on keeping on
A                            B
 Out on the highway with the road gang working
E          E/Eb              E/C#       B 
 Up on the mountain with the cold wind blowing
A                             B
  Out on the highway with the road band working
         E                  B7
But the last laugh, baby is yours
                       A        B
And don't you love the sound
