[Verse 1]
[Bb]Now
[F]if there's a [C]smile [F]on my [Bb]face
[F]It's only that [C]I'm [F]to fool the public[Bb]
[F]But when it [C]comes [F]down to fooling you
[Bb]Now [F]honey,
[C]that's quite [F]a different subj[Bb]ect
[F]But don't [C]let [F]my glad expres[Bb]sion
[F]Give [C]you [F]the wrong impres[Bb]sion
[F]Cause really I'm [C]sad[F]
[C]I'm[F] sadder than sad[C]
[F]You've [Bb]gone and [F]I'm hurting so [C]bad
[F]Like a [C]clown I [F]pretend
to be [C]glad[F][C][Bb]
[F]Now there's some [G]sad things I know to man
[E]But I ain't too[Am] upset about
[F]The [Fm]tears of a[F] clown[Bb]
[Am]When [F]there's no one [C]around[Bb][Am]
[F]Tears of a [C]clown[Bb]
[Am]When [F]there's no one
[Eb]arou[C]nd[F][Bb][F][C][F]
[C]Now [F]if I appea[C]r to [F]be carefree,
[Bb]it's[F] only to camou[C]
[F]flage my sadness
[Bb]In o[F]rder to keep[C] my prid[F]e,
I try [Bb]to c[F]over the hurt
[C]wit[F]h a show of gla[Bb]dness
[F]But don't let[C] my show con[Bb]vince you
[F]That I'v[C]e been happy since
[Bb]you deci[F]ded to go[C][F]
[Bb]Oh, [F]I do so [C]I'm [F]hurt[Bb] and I[C]
[F]want you to [C]know[F][Bb]
[F]Now, [G]there's some sad
things I know in the name
[E]But I ain't too[Am] much sadder
[F]than the tears of a clown
[Bb]When[F] there[Am]'s n[F]o
one [C]around[Am]
[F]Tears of a [C]clown
[Bb]When[F] there[Am]'s no one ar[F]ound[C][F][Bb]
[F][C][F][Bb][F][C][F][Bb][F][C][F][Bb][F]
[C]Just [F]like Pag[Bb]liacci did[F],
[C]I t[F]ry to keep my surf[Bb]ace h[F]ere
Smil[C]ing [F]in the public eye[Bb],[F]
but in my [C]lonely [F]room I [Bb]cry
[F]Yeah, there's some [G]sad
things known to [E]man
But it ain't [Am]too much a sad [F]thing[Fm][F]
The [C]tears of a [Bb]clown,
[Am]when [Eb]there's no one [C]around[Bb]
[Am]The [F]tear[Eb]s of a clown[C],[Bb]
[Am]when [F]there's no [Eb]one [C]arou[Bb]nd[Am][Eb][C][Bb]
[F][Eb][F][Bb][F][Eb][Bb][F][C][Bb][F][C]
[Bb][F]
You
