Skeeter Davis – The Face Of A Clown (Guitar)

C   G   Am  Em   F   C   Dm   G7
Oh  oh  oh  oh

     C              G
It's hard for me to smile

            C      C7
I feel like crying

      F                C
Yet I always manage to grin

F                      C           Am
Friends won't know the pain that I feel

       D7              G
Or the misery that I'm in

C        G             C
Everyone thinks I'm so happy

      F               C     C7
For I smile and never frown

    F
But looks are deceiving

    C      Am
And nobody knows

    C               G         C
The hurt behind the face of a clown

     F                   C
I've got my pride and my tears I'll hide

    F            C
Whenever you’re around

       F                C
You’ll never, never know  you hurt me so

Am     D7                 G     D  G
   For I have a face of a clown

C                G   C
  I'll try to conceal  this pain that I feel

  F                   C
I can't let it get me down

    F                          C     Am
You won't have the pleasure of kno-o-wing

    C               G         F
The hurt behind the face of a clown

                   C           Am
You won't have the pleasure of knowing

    C               G         C     F  G  C
The hurt behind the face of a clown
