Emeli Sande – Clown
[Am7] [D/F#] [G]
I guess it's funnier from where you're standing
[Am7] [D/F#] [G]
'Cause from over here I've missed the joke
[Am7] [D/F#] [Em]
Cleared the way for my crash landing
[Cadd9] [Cm](or Cmadd9) [G]
I've done it again, another number for your notes
[Am7] [D/F#] [G]
I'd be smiling if I wasn't so desperate
[Am7] [D/F#] [G]
I'd be patient if I had the time
[Am] [D/F#] [Em]
I could stop and answer all of your questions
[Cadd9] [Cm](or Cmadd9) [G]
As soon as I find out how I could move from the back of the line
CHORUS
[G]
So I'll be your clown
[Cadd9]
Behind the glass
[Am7] [C]
Go 'head and laugh 'cause it's funny
[Dsus4] [D]
I would too if I saw me
[G]
I'll be your clown
[Cadd9]
On your favorite channel
[Am7] [C]
My life's a circus-circus rounding circles
[Dsus4] [D]
I'm selling out tonight
[Am7] [D/F#] [G]
I'd be less angry if it was my decision
[Am7] [D/F#] [G]
And the money was just rolling in
[Am7] [D/F#] [Em]
If I had more than my ambition
[Cadd9]
I'll have time to please
[Cm](orCmadd9) [G]
I'll have time to thank you as soon as I win
Chorus 2
[Cadd9] [D/F#] [G]
From a distance my choice is simple
[Cadd9] [D/F#] [G]
From a distance I can entertain
[Cadd9] [D/F#] [Em]
So you can see me I put makeup on my face
[F]
But there's no way you can feel it
[Am] ([D])
From so far away
