Verse 1:
Well I [D] don't know why I came here to- | night
I got the [D] feeling that something ain't | right
I'm so [G7] scared in case I fall off my | chair

| [A] Clowns to the left of me
| [C] Jokers to the [G] right
here I | [D] am stuck in the middle with | you

Verse 2:
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
| [A] Clowns to the left of me
| [C] Jokers to the [G] right
here I | [D] am stuck in the middle with | you

Chorus
Well you [G7] started out with nothing
and you're [G7] proud that you're a self made man | [D] | [D]
And your [G7] family all come crawlin,
[G7] slap you on the back and say  
| [D↓] Please... | ... | [Am7↓] Please... | ...

Verse 3:
[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 [D] don't think that I can take any- | more
| [A] Clowns to the left of me
| [C] Jokers to the [G] right
here I | [D] am stuck in the middle with | you
