Capo III *
[F] [C] [F] [C] [G7] [C] [C7] [F] [F] [Dm] [C]
[F] [C] [F] [C]
Isn't it rich? Aren't we a pair?
[G] [C] [C7] [C] [F] [Dm]
Me here at last on the ground, and you in mid-air
[F] [C] [Dm] [F] [C]
Where are the clowns.
[F] [C] [F] [C]
Isn't it bliss? Don't you approve?
[G] [C] [C7] [C] [F] [Dm]
One who keeps tearing around, and one who can't move.
[F] [C] [Dm] [F] [C]
But where are the clowns? Send in the clowns.
[Cmaj7] [Em] [Am] [Em]
Just when I stopped, opening doors,
[Cmaj7] [Em] [Am] [C]
Finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours;
[Em] [D7] [Em] [D7]
Making my entrance again, with my usual flair,
[Am] [Em] [D7] [G] [G7]
Sure of my lines, no one is there.
[F] [C] [F] [C]
Don't you love farce? My fault, I fear;
[G] [C] [C7] [C] [F] [Dm]
I thought that you'd want what I want - sorry my dear.
[F] [C] [Dm] [F] [C] [Dm]
But where are the clowns? Quick, send in the clowns.
[F] [G7] [C]
Don't bother, they're here.
[F] [C] [F] [C] [G7] [C] [C7] [F] [F] [Dm] [C]
[F] [C] [F] [C]
Isn't it rich? Isn't it queer,
[G] [C] [C7] [C] [F] [Dm]
Losing my timing this late, in my career?
[F] [C] [Dm] [F] [C]
But where are the clowns? There ought to be clowns
[Dm] [F] [G] [C]
Well, maybe next year.
