Intro

Em Am C B7

Em              D                Em
All his life he did his best for all
Em               D                Em
And the crown of laughter hanging low
    Am
The spotlight in the ring
    Em
The choruses that sing
    C                D              Em
The paint and masquerade was just a show

Chorus
    G           D
The clown - the clown
Am        Em
Happiness around
C           B7            Em
Just a soul lonely in the crowd
    G           D
The clown - the clown
    Am           Em
His heart is all alone
C                D         Em
No one wants the tears of a clown

    Em            D         Em
The living of the glory and applause
    Em               D            Em
The circus tent, the only home he knows
    Am
The cover-up is bold,
    Em
The mask becoming cold
     C         D               Em
It's easier to let the eyelids close

    G           D
The clown - the clown
Am        Em
Happiness around
C           B7            Em
Just a soul lonely in the crowd
    G           D
The clown - the clown
    Am           Em
His heart is all alone
C                D         Em
No one wants the tears of a clown

    Em            D                Em
The final curtain falls for all to see
    Em               D           Em
The final score, the circus melody
Am
His star that shone so bright,
Em
Gave comfort in the night
    C                 D                Em
The light that always held him set him free

His heart is all alone
C                D         Em
No one wants the tears of a clown
