Emeli Sandé - Clown

Am D G
i guess it’s funnier from where you’re standing
Am D G
’cause from over here i’ve missed the joke
Am D G
cleared the way for my crash landing
Am D G
i’ve done it again , another number for your notes
Am D G
i’d be smiling if i wasn’t so desperate
Am D G
i’d be patient if i had the time
Am D G
i could stop and answer all of your questions
Am D G
as soon as i find out how i could move from the back of the line

G
so i’ll be your clown

behind the glass
Am C
go ’head and laugh ’cause it’s funny
D
i would too if i saw me
G
i’ll be your clown

on your favorite channel
Am C
my life’s a circus – circus rounding circles
D

Am D G
i’d be less angry if it was my decision
Am D G
and the money was just rolling in
Am D G
if i had more than my ambition
Am
i’ll have time to please
D G
i’ll have time to thank you as soon as i win

G
