G    A7       D     G   A7   D
Isn't it rich?  Aren't we a pair
A7 D     A7   D            D7       G
Me here at last on the ground, and 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

 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 wantsorry 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
