G       C            E
I was a clown when I thought I had found,
  F                G                C
a love for me, and only me..but she laughed
       G                 F                G
at the clown..turned him down, turned him down.

        C              E
I never frown, ha, ha, ha, I'm the clown.
          F                  G
Though it breaks my heart, I play the part of a
C              G              F              G
clown..running round, trouble bound, I'm the clown.

G                              C
I wander all around, wondering if you ever cared.
  D       C        D                  C       D
I go from place to place, I look from face to face,
                        G    D
hoping that you will be there.

All over the town, the word is out, it's all around..

that I love her still, guess I always will, I'm
    C              G              F              G    C
the clown..running round, trouble bound, I'm the clown.
