Standard (EADGBE)
I was a clown when I thought I had found
A love for me and only me but she laughed at the clown
turned him down turned him down
I never frown ah, ah, ah, I'm the clown
for it breaks my heart I play the part of a clown runnin round
trouble bound I'm the clown
I wander all around, wondering if you ever cared
I go from place to place, I look from face to face
hoping that you will be there
All over town the word is out, it's all around
that I love her still guess I always will I'm the clown
runnin round trouble bound I'm the clown
