VERSE:

                                        NOTE: * means to do  bass run 
People say I'm the life of the party             from the C chord to the 
                      *                       chord.
'cause I tell a joke or two                          C      G
  G                  C        D                 B ---3-2-0-----  
Although I might be laughing loud and hearty    E ----------3--
              *
Deep inside I'm blue


CHORUS:
                         
So take a good look at my face
                                
You'll see my smile looks out of place
                                    
If you look closer, it's easy to trace
                         *
The tracks of my tears. 
                                   
I need you (need you), need you (need you) 


VERSE:
                                     
Since you left me if you see me with another girl
                      *
Seeming like I'm having fun
                    
Although she may be cute
              
She's just a substitute
                           *
Because you're the permanent one.

CHORUS:
                         
So take a good look at my face
                                
You'll see my smile looks out of place
                                          
look a little bit closer, it's easy to trace
                         *
The tracks of my tears. 


BREAK:
                                          (N.C.)
I need you (need you), need you (need you) 

SHORT INSTRUMENTAL BREAK:           

                   
Outside I'm masquerading
                  
Inside my hope is fading
         
Just a clown 
                 
Since you put me down
    
My smile is my make up
                               
I wear since my break up with you

 
CHORUS:
                         
So take a good look at my face
                                
You'll see my smile looks out of place
                                    
If you look closer, it's easy to trace
                          
The tracks of my tears. Baby,baby,baby,baby

CHORUS:
                      
Take a good look at my face
                                 
You'll see my smile looks out of place
                                    
If you look closer, it's easy to trace
                         *
The tracks of my tears.
