[C#] [G#] [C#]
[G#] [C#]
[F#] [B] [F#] Oh [C#] yeah, yeah, [F#] yeah.
[B] [F#] Now [C#] if there's a smile [F#] [B] on my face,
[F#]
[C#] it's only there [F#] trying to [B] fool the public.
[F#] But [C#] when it comes down [F#] to [B] fooling you,
[F#] now [C#] honey, that's [F#] quite a [B] different [F#] subject.
[C#] But don't let [F#] my [B] glad [F#] expression
[C#] give you [F#] the [B] wrong impression.
[F#] Really, [C#] I'm [F#] sad.
[B] Oh, [F#] I'm sad, [C#] I'm sad.
[F#] [B] Gone and [F#] I'm hurting [A#m] so bad.
[B] Like a cloud, [F#] I prepare to [C#] be glad.
[F#] [B] [F#] Love [G#] doesn't stop things, no, [F] to men.
But [A#m] angels are [F#] sadder than
the tears [C#] of a cloud
[G#] when [C#] there's no one [G#] around.
[C#] Yeah.
[F#] [B] [F#] Oh [C#] yeah, [F#] baby.
[B] [F#] Now if [C#] I appear [F#] to be [B] carefree,
[F#] it's only [C#] to [F#] camouflage [B] my sadness
[F#] in order [C#] to shield [F#] my proud [B] outcry.
[F#] Recover [C#] this hurt [F#] with a show [B] of [F#] gladness.
But [C#] don't let [F#] my show [B] convince [F#] you
that [C#] I've [F#] been happy [B] since you [F#] decided [C#] to go.
[F#] [B] What [F#] I need is [C#] a [F#] girl [B] that [F#] I want you to know.
But [B] for others [F#] I'm [C#] not on the show.
[F#] [B] [F#] Yeah, [G#] I guess it's all the same,
so [F] to men,
[A#m] too much sad.
[F#] But angels are sadder than
the tears [G#] of a cloud
when [C#] there's no one around.
[G#] [C#]
Yeah.
[F#] Just like [B] Pagliacci [F#] [C#]
did,
I [F#] try to keep [B] myself [F#] in [C#] smiling
[F#] in the [B] public eye.
[F#] But [A#m] in my lonely [F#] room [B] I cry
[F#] because I'm teary [C#] in the night.
And there's no one around.
[F#] [B] [F#] Oh [C#] yeah, [F#] baby.
[B] [F#] Now if [C#] there's a [F#] smile [B] on my [F#] face,
[C#] don't let [F#] [B] pressure
[F#] tear [C#] something [F#] through.
[B] [F#] Pressure.
[C#] Don't let [F#] this smile [B] I wear
[F#] make [C#] you [F#] feel better.
[B] [F#] It [C#] makes me sad.
[F#] [B] [F#] [C#] [F#]
[G#] [C#]
[F#] [B] [F#] Oh [C#] yeah, yeah, [F#] yeah.
