Lonely Clown Cifras

C Em Eb Bb
 
[Verse 1]
 
C      Em         Eb            Bb
Frozen fingertips all stiff and tired
C      Em               Eb          Bb
Trucks scream by and my eyes stay wired
C               Em             Eb         Bb
Shaking vibrations from the howling wind
C                 Em         Eb            Bb
Whispering everything will eventually cave in
 
 
[Chorus]
Am            C
Self pity for being in a pile
Am               C
The lonely clown in exile
Em            Am
Got my doctor on speed dial
Em                    Am
He's put me under the suicidal file
F                         G
There's a better way than being this fragile
Em                 Am
And I know I'll be waiting for awhile
F                G
I'm sure I'll be watching this hour glass
F                 G
Slowing down over every bump in my path
 
 
C  Em Eb Bb
 
[Verse 2]
C               Em         Eb          Bb
I think I might just stay outside tonight
C          Em              Eb            Bb
Sit on the couch stare out til I lose my sight
C               Em           Eb                    Bb
Wander bout the miner felons locked up in juvenile camps
C             Em           Eb            Bb
Sedated til they become more of a sensible man
C            Em          Eb        Bb
Passing swiftly with a frequent dash
C             Em       Eb            Bb
You can imagine the fast crash
C       Em         Eb            Bb
Not a second more to elaborate
C      Em           Eb            Bb
They're all bound to be jailbait
 
 
[Chorus]
Am            C
Self pity for being in a pile
Am            C
The lonely clown in exile
Em            Am
Got my doctor on speed dial
Em            Am
He's put me under the suicidal file
F                         G
There's a better way than being this fragile
Em                 Am
And I know I'll be waiting for awhile
F                G
I'm sure I'll be watching this hour glass
F                 G
Slowing down over every bump in my path
 
 
C  Em Eb Bb [for a hot minute]
 
[Bridge]
 
    C Em    Eb         Bb       C   Em      Eb       Bb
Yes I am the loneliest lonely clown, I'm renown for being down
C     Em         Eb    Bb             C   Em Eb Bb
  Somehow I'm a magnet for this roundabout
