Laugh Kills Lonesome chords by Michael Nesmith

Laugh Kills Lonesome
Am7              G13           Am7         G13
All around the campfire stood, seven dusty men.
     Am7               G13            Am7             G13
The cook was drinking applejack, the cattle were all penned.
Am7                         G13                  Am7          G13
Someone must have cracked a wise one because the men began to grin.
      Am7                   G13          Am7                G13
Their smiles shot out like sunbeams and made the night give in.

chorus:
        Am7    D9    G      Em7   Am7   D9    G    Em7
Because Laugh kills lonesome     every single time.
            Am7    D9    G            Em7
That's why Charlie Russell painted it.
      Am7    D9       G    Em7
And why it looks so fine.
Am7    D9    G      Em7   Am7   D9    G    Em7
Laugh kills lonesome    every single time.

instr. (chorus and verse)

Am7              G13              Am7            G13
Roy and Dale and Pecos Bill, they knew all about this.
Am7             G13         Am7              G13
So did Walt and Hasui, who gave it their own twist.
Am7                         G13                 Am7             G13
Sometimes, when things can't get much worse and life's become a fist.
Am7                    G13           Am7               G13
Someone will crack a wise one and laughter works like this, huh-huh.
