lyrics

Laugh away the Tears
Well I’ve got this funny feeling in my fingers
And I’ve got this funny feeling in my toes
She rang me up to tell ne she was leaving town
When I asked her why she said “It’s just the way it goes”
Well I was never one to question her decisions
She was always right and I was always wrong
But I was curious to know what make her take to the road
She said “what doesn’t kill us only make us strong”
Chorus 1
Well I’ve know her for so many years
We’d laugh away the tears as the years rolled by
She’s been my friend since I don’t know when
And I never thought we’d say goodbye
Well its quiet here down in Nashville city
The stars are out and the shuitters are coming down
And I was thinking about my friend and where she may be now
And where she is I know she’ll be laughing loud
Chorus 2
Well I’ve known her for so many years
We’ve downed a million beers or maybe more
She’s been my friend since I don’t know when
And we’ll be friends for ever more

Instrumental Verse and then Repeat Chorus 1
