F        C      F           C

Isn't it rich?  Aren't we a pair?

G          C                           C7     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.
