v.1
^DWell I don't know why I came here tonight
^DI got the feelin' that somethin' ain't right
I'm so ^Gscared in case I fall off my chair
An' I'm ^Dwonderin' how I'll get down the stairs

^AClowns to the left of me, ^Cjokers to the ^Gright
Here I ^Dam, stuck in the middle with you

v.2
Yes, I'm stuck in the middle with you
And I don't know what it is I should do
It's so hard to keep this smile from my face
Losin' control, yeah I'm all over the place

Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you

Refrain:
Well, you ^Gstarted out with nothin'
^GAnd you're proud that you're a self-made man^D
And your ^Gfamily all come crawlin'
^GSlap you on the back and say ^Dplease... ^Cplease

v.3
Tryin' to make some sense of it all
But I can see that it makes no sense at all
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor
Cause I don't think that I can take anymore

Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you
