Lyrics

(A7)People say I'm the (C#7)life me of a par er ty (F#m11)'cause I tell (B7)a joke or two.

Although (F#m7)I (C#m7)may be laughing (C#7)long a sub and hearty,

by. (F#m11)deep (B7)inside I'm blue.

(E7sus)You'll take a (A)good (D)look at my face.

(E7sus)You see my (A)smile looks out of place.

(E7sus)If you look closer (D)it's easy to (Bm7)trace (E7sus)the tracks of my (Dm7)tears,

(Cmaj9)now (E7sus)baby.

(Bbm7)When (A7)you're gone, if you (C#7)see me with anoth er girl,

(F#m11)acting like (B7)I'm having fun,

although (F#m7)she (C#m7)may be cute, she's (C#7)just a sub stitute,

baby. (F#m11)You're the (B7)pernent one.

(E7sus)You'll take a (A)good (D)look at my face.

(E7sus)You see my (A)smile

looks out of place.

(E7sus)If you look closer (D)it's easy to (Bm7)trace (E7sus)the tracks of my (Dm7)tears,

(Cmaj9)now (E7sus)baby.

now baby.

(Bm9)(Outside) I'm masquerading.

(F#m7)(Bm9)(Outside) (F#m7)my (Bm9)hope is (A)fading.

(Bm9)(Outside) (F#m7)since you (Bm9)put me (F#m7)down,

my smile is my makeup I wear since my breakup with (E7sus)you.

(C#)No, baby.

(A)(D)(People say I'm the life of (E7sus)the party (A)'cause I tell (D)a joke or two.

(E7sus)Although I (A)may be (D)laughing loud and (E7sus)hearty,

(Dm7)deep (G9)inside I'm (Cmaj9)blue.)

(A)(Since (D)you're gone, if you see me with (E7sus)another girl,

(A)and (D)acting like I'm having (Bm7)fun,

(E7sus)although she (A)may be (D)cute, she's just a (E7sus)substitute.

(Dm7)You're (G9)the permanent (Cmaj9)one.)

(A)(D)(People say I'm the life of (E7sus)the party (A)'cause I tell (D)a joke or two.
