Lời bài hát kèm hợp âm cùng dòng

[Intro 1]
[A][Em][D][A]

[Verse 1]
[A]You're feeling nervous, aren't you, boy[Em]?
With your quiet [D]voice and impeccable [A]style
[A]Don't ever let them steal your joy[Em]
And your gentle [D]ways,
to keep 'em from running [A]wild
[A]They can kick dirt in your face
[Em]Dress you down, and tell you that your place
Is in the [D]middle,
when they hate the way you [A]shine
[A]I see you tugging on your shi[Em]rt
Trying to hide in[D]side of it
and hide how much it [A]hurts

[Chorus 1]
Let 'em [A]laugh while they [Em]can
Let 'em [D]spin, let 'em [Dm]scatter in the [A]wind
I have been to the [C#]mov ies,
I've seen how [D]it ends
And the [Dm]joke's on them

[Interlude 1]
[A][Em][D][A]

[Verse 2]
[A]You get discouraged, don't you, gir[Em]l?
It's your brother's [D]world for a while [A]longer
We gotta [A]dance with the devil on a river
To beat the [Em]stream
Call it living the [D]dream,
call it kicking the lad[A]der
They [A]come to kick dirt in your face
To [Em]call you weak and then displace you
After [D]carrying your baby on your back
across the de[A]sert
[A]I saw your eyes behind your hai[Em]r
And you're looking [D]tired,
but you don't [A]look scared

[Chorus 2]
Let 'em [A]laugh while they [Em]can
Let 'em [D]spin, let 'em [Dm]scatter in the [A]wind
I have been to the [C#]mov ies,
I've seen how [D]it ends
And the [Dm]joke's on them

[Interlude 2]
[A][Em][D][A]

[Chorus 3]
Let 'em [A]laugh while they [Em]can
Let 'em [D]spin, let 'em [Dm]scatter in the [A]wind
I have been to the [C#]mov ies,
I've seen how [D]it ends
And the [Dm]joke's on
[A]them[Em][D][Dm]

[Outro 1]
