DWIGHT YOAKAM  --  POCKET OF A CLOWN

[NO INTRO]


[VERSE 1]
[NC] Inside the pocket of a [A]clown  [ooh-ah, ooh-ah, ooh-ah, ooh-ah]
Is a sad place to hang [E]around.     [ooh-ah...]
Just watching smiles turn into frowns;[ooh-ah...]
Inside the pocket of a [A]clown.      [ooh-ah...]


[VERSE2]
[NC] Inside the heartache of a [A]fool               [ooh-ah...]
You'll learn things they don't teach in [E]school;   [ooh-ah...]
And lessons there can be real cruel;                 [ooh-ah...]  
Inside the heartache of a [A]fool.                   [ooh-ah...]


[BRIDGE]
[D] Hollow lies, make a [A]thin disguise
As [F#m]little drops of truth fall from your [E]eyes.


[INSTRUMENTAL - same chord progression as verse]


[BRIDGE]
[D] Hollow lies, make a [A]thin disguise
As [F#m]little drops of truth fall from your [E]eyes.


[VERSE 3]
[NC] Inside a memory from the [A]past      [ooh-ah...]
Lives every love that didn't [E]last.      [ooh-ah...]
Sweet dreams can start to fade real fast   [ooh-ah...]
Inside a memory from the [A]past.          [ooh-ah...]


[TAG]
[E]It's a real sad place to hang around;
[ooh-ah, ooh-ah, ooh-ah, ooh-ah]
Inside the pocket of a [A]clown.  [ooh-ah, ooh-ah, ooooooh]
