#1.
F    G7     C     F      G7   C 
Is...n't it rich? Aren't we a pair? 
G7 C       G7   C                  C7         F 
Me here at last on the ground, and you in mid-air...
Dm   F      C      Dm F C 
Send in the clowns. 
#2.  
F    G7     C      F     G7     C 
Is...n't it bliss? Don't you approve? 
G7  C         G7    C               C7            F 
One who keeps tear..ing around, and one who can't move. 
Dm  F             C       Dm   F  G7  C 
But where are the clowns? Send in the clowns. 
  
CHORUS: 
B7          Em      Am7     Em 
Just when I stopped opening doors, 
B7      Em          Am         Em         Am7 
finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours.. 
Em        D7                     Em    D7 
Making my entrance again with my usual flair, 
Am7        Em7     Dm7       G7 
sure of my lines...no one is there.

F     G7       C      F  G7       C 
Don't you love farce? My fault, I fear..
G7 C            G7    C         Cm7      C7       F 
I  thought that you'd want what I want...sorry my dear. 
    Dm    F       G7             Dm   F  G7  C 
But where are the clowns? Quick, send in the clowns. 
Dm    F       G7      C 
Don't bother, they're here. 
  
#3.  
F    G7     C     F   G7     C 
Is...n't it rich? Is..n't it queer?
G7   C      G7   C        Cm7  C7      F 
Los..ing my tim..ing this late in my career? 
    Dm    F       G7            Dm    F  G7 C 
But where are the clowns? There ought to be clowns... 
Dm    F      G7    C 
Well, maybe..next..year.
