That funny man, won't let them down No, he doesn't pretend [G] to be that clown
[D] That time, the laughing [A] time When even a [G] fool learns [D] to love
The clown turned around, saw her smile Oh, how [Bm] she loved me
She [Em] clapped her hands and [B] begged me stay To [A] make her laugh, to [D] make her life gay
Who wants the love of all the world When he [Am] was laughing in the eyes of [G] just one girl?
[D] That day, the [A] precious day When even a [G] fool [D] learns to love
Oh, how I dreamed a [F#m] marvelous dream [G] Where all the heavens are, so it seemed
With [E] thunderous applause, but [A] down from above I'm a [F#m] clown and an angel, [D] so much in love
I'll sing [Em] with my dreams, it's such [A] a dream When [Em] even a [G] fool [D] learns to love
That day, that [F#m] hateful day [D] The joke turned stale, [B] the game was over
[Em] Despite the words of go away [A] Who wants to pray, [D] it's getting late now
My world, my funny world Had lost its mask and shown a [G] broken heart
[D] That time, [A] a sour time When [Em] even a [G] fool [D] learns to love
Oh, how I dreamed a marvelous dream [G] Where all the heavens are, so it seemed
With [E] thunderous applause, but [A] down from above I'm a [F#m] clown and an angel, [B] so much [D] in love
