Send In The Clowns Tab

by Judy Collins


Send In The Clowns:Judy Collins.
Recorded in '75 by Collins (and since by many others)
it's considered a Jazz standard.

#1.
                        
Is...n't it rich? Aren't we a pair? 
                                       
Me here at last on the ground, and you in mid-air...
                  
Send in the clowns. 
#2.  
                          
Is...n't it bliss? Don't you approve? 
                                           
One who keeps tear..ing around, and one who can't move. 
                              
But where are the clowns? Send in the clowns. 
  
CHORUS: 
                      
Just when I stopped opening doors, 
                                   
finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours.. 
                                  
Making my entrance again with my usual flair, 
                     
sure of my lines...no one is there. 
  
#3.  
                            
Don't you love farce? My fault, I fear..
                                        
I  thought that you'd want what I want...sorry my dear. 
                                    
But where are the clowns? Quick, send in the clowns. 
                  
Don't bother, they're here. 
  
#3.  
                       
Is...n't it rich? Is..n't it queer?
                             
Los..ing my tim..ing this late in my career? 
                                   
But where are the clowns? There ought to be clowns... 
               
Well, maybe..next..year.
