The [C] cover is hurt [F] with a show of gladness
[C] But don't let my [Bb] show convince you
That [F] I've been [Bb] happy since you [C] decided to go

_ _ [F] Just like [Bb] Polly are [F] today
[C] I [F] try to keep [Bb] my [F] sadness in
[C] Smiling in the barricade
[F] _
But [C] in my [F] lonely room I cry
Tears [C] of a _ clown
When there's no one [F] around
_ [Bb] _ _
[C] Oh yeah, baby
[Bb] _ Now [C] if there's a smile [Bb] on my face
[C] Don't let my grand expression
Tears of a clown

Tears [C] of a clown

the [C] living they say
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
