Send In The Clowns

Written by Stephen Sondheim, 1973

	  		G    A7       D   
Isn't it rich?    
     G    A7    D  
Are we a pair?  
A7 D       A7   D           D7  
Me here at last on the ground.  
     G  
You in midair?  
Em7    G     D     Em7 G D  
Send in the clowns. 
  
G    A7       D   
Isn't it bliss?  
    G  A7    D  
Don't you approve—  
A7  D     A7     D         D7  
One who keeps tearing around,  
       G  
One who can't move? 
Em7    G       D      Em7   
But where are the clowns?    
  G    A7      D   
Send in the clowns. 
  
Bridge: 
 C#7      F#m7    Bm7   F#m7  
Just when I stopped opening doors,  
 C#7    F#m7      Bm7          F#m7               Bm7 
Finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours.  
F#m    E7            F#m7  
Making my entrance again   
     E7  
With my usual flair,  
Bm7         F#m7   
Sure of my lines—   
 Em7        A7  
No one is there. 

  
G   A7      D      G   
Don't you love farce?  
 A7    D  
My fault, I fear.  
A7  D       A7    D                D7M         
I thought that you'd want what I want.  
D7               G 
Sorry, my dear.  
  Em7    G       A7          
But where are the clowns ? 
  Em7   G  A7    D  
Quick, send in the clowns!  
  Em7    G      A7     D  
Don't bother, they're here. 

  
G     A7      D   
Isn't it rich?  
     G    A7   D  
Isn't it queer—  
A7   D     A7   D            D7M 
Losing my timing this late  
      D7      G  
in my career?  
  Em7    G      A7           
But where are the clowns? 
  Em7  G  A7    D  
There ought to be clowns.  
 Em7     G   A7   D  
Well, maybe next year.
