Between a Laugh and a Tear
John Mellencamp
Capo III
for Hannah
[Intro]
Am C F C x2
[Verse]
F C
When paradise is no longer fit for you to live in
Am G
And your adolescent dreams are gone
F C
Through the days you feel a little used up
Am G
And you don't know where your energy's gone wrong
F C
It's just your soul feelin' a little downhearted
Am G
Sometimes life is too ridiculous to live
F G
You count your friends all on one finger
Am G
I know it sounds crazy just the way that we live
[Chorus]
F C
Between a laugh and a tear
Am G
Smile in the mirror as you walk by
F C
Between a laugh and a tear
Am
And that's as good as it can get for us
G F
And there ain't no reason to stop tryin'
[Interlude]
Am C F C x2
[Verse]
F C
When this cardboard town can no longer amuse you
Am G
You see through everything and nothin' seems worthwhile
F C
And hypocrite used to be such a big word to you
Am G
And it don't seem to mean anything to you now
F C
Just try to live each and every precious moment
Am G
Don't be discouraged by the future forget the past
F C
That's old advise but it'll be good to you
Am G
I know there's a balance see it when I swing past
[Chorus]
F C
Between a laugh and a tear
Am G
Smile in the mirror as you walk by
F C
Between a laugh and a tear
Am
And that's as good as it can get for us
G F
And there ain't no reason to stop tryin'
C
Between a laugh and a tear
Am G
Smile in the mirror as you walk by
F C
Between a laugh and a tear
Am G
And that's as good as it can get for us
F
And there ain't no reason to stop tryin'
[Interlude]
C Am G
[Outro]
F C
When paradise can no longer amuse you
