lyrics from reprint of 1967 sheet music
G7
Ev'ry face that I see
Is all wrapped up in frowns
And unfortunately
It kind of gets me down
C G
Laugh
C G C G
'Cause the music is funny
C G C G
Yea the bass sounds offbeat
C G C G
Ain't that neat?
C G
Laugh
C G C G
When you lose all your money
C G C G
Or you can't find your shoes
C G C G C
To cover your feet
G7
It's not too hard to see
F C
Exactly what I'm after
G7
Sometimes a tear should fall
F C
But I require giggles
And chuckles
Ho ho ho!
C G
Laugh

C G C G
When you're keeping a secret
C G C G
And it seems to be known
C G C G
By the rest of the world
C G
Laugh
C G C G
When you go to a party
C G C G
And you can't tell the boys
C G C G C
From the girls
G7
Ev'ry face that I see
Is all wrapped up in frowns
And unfortunately
It kind of gets me down
C G
Laugh
C G C G
At the things that are wrong
C G C G
If you think it's this song
C G7 C
Then laugh
C G7 C
Then laugh
