The Kinks - Death of a Clown: chords

    C                     G
My makeup is dry and it cracks on my chin
      F                      C          G
I'm drowning my sorrows in whiskey and gin
     C                          G
The lion tamer's whip doesn't crack anymore
     F                             C            G
The lions they won't bite and the tigers won't roar

F        Dm       A#        D#
La la la La la la La la la La

    Dm                     C           G
So let's all drink to the death of a clown
 C                         G
Won't someone help me to break up this crown
 F                      C           G
Let's all drink to the death of a clown

La la la La la la  La la la La

Dm                      C           G
Let's all drink to the death of a clown

The old fortune teller lies dead on the floor
Nobody needs fortunes told anymore
The trainer of insects is crouched on his knees
And frantically looking for runaway fleas

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Let's all drink to the death of a clown

Chorus:
So won't someone help me to break up this crown?
Let's all drink to the death of a clown
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Let's all drink to the death of a clown

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la...
