Lyrics
The (Am7)odds were a (D7)hundred to one (G6)against me.
(Eaug)The (Am7)world thought the (D7)heights were too high to (Bm7)climb.
(E7)But (Am)people from (B7)Missouri never (Em9)incensed me.
(C9)Oh, I (F7)wasn't a bit (A7)concerned for from (B7)hist'ry I had (F#7)learned how (Bm)many,
(Bb)many (D)times (A7)the worm had (Am7)turned.
(G)They all (Em)laughed at (D7)Christopher Columbus when he said the world was round.
(G)They all (Em)laughed when (D7)Edison recorded sound.
(G)They all (Em)laughed at (D7)Wilbur and his brother (F#7)when they said that man could fly.
(D)They told Marconi (A9)wireless was a phony;
(D7)it's (E7)the (F7)same (E7)old (D7)cry.
They laughed at (G7)me wanting you,
said I was (F7)reaching for the (E7)moon;
but (A7)oh, you came (Em7)through.
(A7)Now they'll (Am7)have to change their (D7)tune.
(G)They all (Em)said we (D7)never could be happy.
(E7)They laughed at us and (A9)how!
But (Bm7)ho, ho, (Bb7)ho!
(Am7)Who's got the (D6)last laugh (G)now?
(G)They all (Em)laughed at (D7)Rockefeller Center;
now they're fighting to get in.
(G)They all (Em)laughed at (D7)Whitney and his cotton (G)gin.
(G)They all (Em)laughed at (D7)Fulton and his steamboat,
(F#7)Hershey and his choc'late (Bm)bar.
(D)Ford and his Lizzie (A9)kept the laughers busy;
(D7)that's (E7)how (F7)(E7)people (D7)are.
They laughed at (G7)me wanting you,
said it would (F7)be hello (E7)goodbye;
but (A7)oh, you came (Em7)through.
(A7)Now they're (Am7)eating humble (D7)pie.
(G)They all (Em)said we'd (D7)never get together.
(E7)Darling, let's take a (A9)bow, for (Bm7)ho,
ho, (Bb7)ho!
(Am7)Who's got the (D6)last laugh, (G)now?
(Bm7)hee, hee, (E7)hee!
(Cm7)Let's at the (F6)past laugh, (Bm7)ha,
ha, (Bbm7)ha!
(Am7)Who's got the (D6)last laugh (G)now?
