[Verse]
Well, I [D] don't know why I came here tonight
I got the [D] feeling that something ain't right
I'm so [G7-5X3433 in drop D] scared in case I fall off my chair
And I'm [D] wondering how I'll get down the stairs
[Chorus]
[A] Clowns to the left of me,
[C] Jokers to the [G] right, here I [D] am,
Stuck in the middle with you.
[Verse]
Yes I'm [D] stuck in the middle with you
And I'm [D] wondering what it is I should do
It's so [G7] hard to keep this smile from my face
Losing con [D] trol, yeah, I'm all over the place
[Chorus]
[A] Clowns to the left of me,
[C] Jokers to the [G] right, here I [D] am,
Stuck in the middle with you.
[Bridge - Backward drums up to second G7]
Well, you [G7] started out with nothing,
And you're proud that you're a self made man [D]
And your [G7] friends, they all come crawlin', slap you on the back and say,
(stop and just snare)
[D] Please.... [Am7add11 - x05530] Please.....
[Slide Guitar - Just hammer on D at 5th fret from C/D and emphasise high A with strumming]
[D]
[Verse]
[D] Trying to make some sense of it all
But I can [D] see that it makes no sense at all
Is it [G7] cool to go to sleep on the floor
'Cause I don't [D] think that I can take anymore
[Chorus]
[A] Clowns to the left of me,
[C] Jokers to the [G] right, here I [D] am,
Stuck in the middle with you.
