Somewhere in a market square The cobblestone still shine
Am Dm G Am F G Am
Glassy eyes behold the sight Through another cup of wine...
C G C G Dm F E Esus4 | E7 |
The one eyed jester skips and turns As he makes his way through the crowd
Am Dm G Am F G Am | Am |
While the tavern's royalty try not to laugh aloud...
Am Dm G Am F G Am
The jester does another spin And then falls to the floor
Am Dm G Am F G Am
A show of hands, a short "Hurrah!" A plea for him to do more...
C G C G Dm F E Esus4 | E7 |
The ease of laughter comes so fast when you're not in A jester's shoes
Am Dm G Am F G Am | Am |
Cause when you've only Fools Gold, you've got nothing more to lose...

When your mind begins to race you've got no time to rest

"Where is my clown? I need him now, to take my troubles away..."

The harlequin rushes in as his work begins for the day...
