Now, if there's a smile up..on my face,  
B    Gb         Db        Gb       B  
It's only there trying to fool the public.  
Gb                Db  
But when it comes down to fooling you,  
B    Gb           Db            Gb     B  
Now, honey that's quite a different subject.  


[Verso 2]
  
Gb    Db     Gb          B  
Don't let my glad expression,  
Gb       Db  Gb      B  
Give you the wrong impression.  
    Gb         Db Gb B          Gb  
really I'm sad.......Oh, I'm sadder than sad.  
Db     Gb   B           Gb     Db  
You're gone and I'm hurting so bad,

Like a clown I appear to be glad..

the tears of a clown, when there's no one around.

           Db      Gb       B 
Now if I appear to be carefree,

It's only to camouflage my sadness.   
     Gb       Db        Gb      B 
And Honey to shield my pride I try,  
    Gb         Db          Gb     B  
to cover this hurt with a show of gladness.  
Gb        Db      Gb      B 
But don't let my show convince you,   
Gb   Db         Gb    B          Gb        D Gb B 
that I've been happy since you, decided to go.  
   Gb      Db  Gb   B       Gb             Db Gb       
I need you so, I'm hurt and I want you to know,   
          B      Gb        Db Gb B Db 
but for others I put on a show...

Smiling in the public eye, but in my

lonely room I cry, the tears of a clown,
