Ron Sexsmith – Clown In Broad Daylight (Guitar)

                 E                        A
Standing on the side of the road near the overpass

        B7                        A
With a sign around his neck that says

      E       F#m                  B7                       E   A   E   B7
'Car wash, free balloons', he's a clown in broad daylight

                    E                        A
He's waving at the people in cars who do a double take

            B7                            A       E
And goad him on with their horns outside the car wash

    F#m                  B7                      E   A   E
Like a cartoon, he's a clown in broad daylight

                       A
Raising eyebrows and emotions

    B7                        E
He don't phase some people at all

                           A          G#m        F#m     B7
For everyday the circus is open, everything is alright

B7
He's just a clown in broad daylight

     G#m        F#m    B7
Everything is alright

      B7                    E
for against the backdrop of ordinary life

         A                          B7
It's the easy laugh that gets you through

                      A      E
Your working day and the hogwash

         F#m           B7                      E   A   E
Sad but true, he's a clown in broad daylight

                     F#m
Yeah, he's waving at you

         B7                        E
He's a clown, a clown in broad daylight

E                            A
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da,

 B7                  A      E   F#m   B7
Ooh, da, da, on and on and on, yeah
