The Byrds       Laughing           written by  David Crosby
David Crosby

D              Bm        D           F6
I though I had met a man who said he knew a man
     G             D
Who  knew what was going on
      F     G   F         G   D     Bm        A   G   D
I was mistaken  only  another stranger that I knew
D                    Bm                D           F6       G
And I thought that I had found a light to guide me thru the night and
         D
all it's darkness
      F     G   F        G            D     Bm        A  G   D
I was mistaken  only  reflection of a shadow  that I saw
D                       Bm               D         F6      G     D
And I though that I had seen someone who seemed at last to know the

truth
      F     G   F                        G                 D       Bm
I was mistaken  it was only a very small child  but he was laughing

laughing
       A              G     D
In the sun oh oh oh   oh oh oh

Bm  G    D

D
In the sun in the sun  in the sun
