Send In The Clowns

 
              
 
G    A7       D      G    A7    D  
Isn't it rich?  Are we a pair,  
A7  D       A7   D                  D7         G  
Me here at last on the ground,  you in mid-air?  
Em7    G       D        Em7   G   D  
Send in the clowns.  
 
G    A7       D      G    A7      D  
Isn't it bliss?  Don't you approve?  
A7  D         A7      D               D7            G  
One who keeps tearing around, and one who can't move.  
Em7    G             D       Em7     G    A7      D  
But where are the clowns?  Send in the clowns. 
  
Bridge:  
 C#7         F#m7    Bm7     F#m7  
Just when I stopped opening doors,  
 C#7     F#m7        Bm7         F#m7         Bm7  
Finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours;  
F#m        E7                    F#m7    E7  
Making my entrance again with my usual flair,  
Bm7         F#m7    Em7        A7  
Sure of my lines  no one is there.  
 
 
G     A7         D      G   A7      D  
Don't you love farce?  My fault, I fear;  
A7  D          A7     D       D7M       D7        G  
I thought that you'd want what I want. Sorry, my dear.  
     Em7    G         A7            Em7  G  A7    D  
But where are the clowns?  Quick, send in the clowns.  
   Em7    G       A7     D  
Don't bother, they're here.  
 
 
G     A7      D     G   A7      D  
Isn't it rich?  Isn't it queer,  
A7    D       A7    D       D7M  D7        G  
Losing my timing this late in my career?  
     Em7    G        A7            Em7  G  A7    D  
But where are the clowns? There ought to be clowns.  
 Em7       G     A7   D  
Well, maybe next year.
