Chorus:
      D               A    D                E           
Ha ha said the clown    has the king lost his crown,
      A           E         A
has the night been tight on romance
      D            A    D             E
Ha ha said the clown    easy bringing me down,
                         AmE - Am
that you've lost your chance
    Am                                    E 
        Feeling low, gotta go see a show in town
    Am                           E             Am
Hear the jokes, have a smoke, and a laugh at the clown
    Am                                  E
In a whirl, see a girl with a smile in her eyes
    Am                                E
Never thought I'd be brought right down by her lies
 
Chorus:
      D            A    D                     E           
Ha ha said the clown    has the king lost his crown,
       A           E         A
has the night been tight on romance
      D           A    D                E
Ha ha said the clown    easy bringing me down,
                       AmE - Am
that you've lost your chance
    Am                                           E
In a trance, watch her dance to the beat of the drums
    Am                              E             Am   
Faster now, sweating brow, I'm all the fingers and thumbs
    Am                                         E
Wonder why I hit the sky  when she blows me a kiss
    Am                        E          Am  
In a while run a mile I'm regretting all this
 
Chorus:  Ha, Ha said the clown.....
 

    Am                                                E  
Take your coat, close the show, wish the people good-bye
    Am                              E           Am
Grab my coat, grab my hat, look that girl in the eye
    Am                                               E
Where's your home, What's your phone stop fooling around
    Am                           E             Am   
Could have died she replied "I'm a wife of the clown"
