[ verse 1 ]
[ nc ] inside the pocket of A [ A ] clown [ ooh – ah , ooh – ah , ooh – ah , ooh – ah ]

just watching smiles turn into frowns; [ ooh – ah . . . ]
inside the pocket of A [ A ] clown . [ ooh – ah . . . ]

[ nc ] inside the heartache of A [ A ] fool [ ooh – ah . . . ]
you’ll learn things they don’t teach in [ E ] school; [ ooh – ah . . . ]
and lessons there can be real cruel; [ ooh – ah . . . ]
inside the heartache of A [ A ] fool . [ ooh – ah . . . ]

[ D ] hollow lies , make A [ A ] thin disguise
as [ F#m ] little drops of truth fall from your [ E ] eyes .
