Skeeter Davis - The Face Of A Clown Chords

[Intro]
C   G   Am  Em   F   C   Dm   G7
Oh  oh  oh  oh
 
[Verse 1]
     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
 
[Verse 2]
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
 
[Chorus]
     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
 
[Outro]
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
