INTRO: [A] [D] [E] // [A] [D] [/D/C#/B/A] : [x2]

VERSE 1:
[A] People [D] say I'm the [D] life of the [E] party
Be-[A]-cause I tell a [D] joke or two [/D/C#/B/A]
Although I [A] might be [D] laughing [D] loud and [E] hearty
[A] Deep in-[D]-side I'm blue [/D/C#/B/A]

CHORUS:
So take a [A] good [D] look at my [D] face [E]
You'll see my [A] smile [D] looks out of [D] place [E]
If you look [A] closer, it's [D] easy to [D] trace [E]
The tracks of my [A] tears [D] [/D/C#/B/A]
I need you [D] (need [A] you), need you [D] (need [A] you)

VERSE 2:
[A] Since you [D] left me if you [D] see me with an-[E]-other girl
[A] Seeming like I'm [D] having fun [/D/C#/B/A]
Although she [A] may be [D] cute, she's just a [D] substi-[E]-tute
[A] Cause you're the [D] permanent one [/D/C#/B/A]

REPEAT CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
[D] [A] Ooh [D] yeah [A]
Out-[D]-side [A], I'm masque-[D]-rading [A]
In-[D]-side [A], my hope is [D] fading [A]
Just a [D] clown [A], ooh since you [D] put me [A] down
My [D] smile is my make up, I wear since my break up with [E] you

REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]
