INTRO: G C D
G
I stood there in the shadows as they went strollin by
C
Now she ain't my gal no longer, there's no reason I should cry
D
But I knew there went my future, and I couldn't stop the tears
C D G
At the sound of laughter ringin in my ears
C G
I spent every dime I had on her and when it was gone
C D
She said hon it's sure been fun, but it's time you moved along
G
So i stood there in the shadows, and I had my forty-four
C
I could hear her mockin laughter but she won't laugh anymore
D
Now I'm down here in the jailhouse and i know what brought me here
C D G
It was the sound of laughter ringin in my ears
BREAK
C G
Well I guess I should have left this town and her far behind
C D
For the way that she made fun of me keeps runnin through my mind
G
Well the jury showed no mercy and I never asked for none
C
'Cause I know I got it comin, I'm not proud of what I done
D
But down here in this darkness, more and more I seem to hear
C D G
The sound of laughter ringin in my ears
C D G
I hear the sound of laughter ringin in my ears
