Verse 1
(A major) (D major) (A major) Tell me, how does it feel
in the hour of deception
And the moment of pretend
To be scorned
By those rank and those unkind strangers
You were fool enough to call your friends?
(E major) Will you say, (D major) as the curtain
Verse 2

Verse 3
When the last (A major) of the garlands
and laurel crowns
And fine bouquets have all
been swept away
You were lost in the smokescreens and cavalcades
and accolades
Instead of traitors paid (D major) (A major) (E major)
Well, will (D major) you find the courage
(G major) to say (A major) (E major)
(F sharp minor) "They're not (A major) laughing at
(E major) me now" (A major)
(D major) (A major) (D major) (A major)
Verse 4
(D major)
You could shake (B minor) my hand (B major) (B minor) (F sharp minor)
If I could (B minor) unform my fist (D major)
If I were a (B minor) gentleman (C sharp minor) (C sharp major)
(C sharp minor) If I were (F sharp minor) (B major) a Christian (B minor) (B major)
But I wouldn't risk it, why would you?
You know my name now,
Interlude 1
it's "Mister" to you
(E major) (D major) (E major) (B minor) (E major) (A major)
(Asus4) (A major) (Asus4) (A major)
Verse 5
Now (A major) we're back at the start (D major)
(A major)
No forgiveness in your heart
You turn your coat and ask me to
turn my (D major) cheek (A major)
And it's all in a (E flatdim) lan (A major) guage
That I can understand but never
bring myself to speak (E major)
I live to tell (D major) you
If (G major) you dare (E major)
It's a peal too (D major) appalling to (G major) bear (E major)
I, I, I wonder (D major) if you here
or are (G major) you there
(E major) They're not laughing at
me now
(A major)
Verse 6
Verse 7
They're not laughing at me now
(A major)
They're not laughing at me now
They're not laughing at him now
(A major)
They're not laughing at me now
