Intro: D  D7sus2  D6  D7  D6*  D7  D5 /  D  D7sus2  D6  D7  D6*  D7

           D
Well, I don't know why I came here tonight
                D
I got the feeling that something ain't right
            G7
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair
               D
And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs

 

A                                          C                  G                   D
Clowns to the left of me,  Jokers to the right, here I am,
D
Stuck in the middle with you.

 

Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you
And I'm wondering what it is I should do
It's so hard to keep this smile from my face
Losing 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.

 

          G7
Well, you started out with nothing,
                                                                               D
And you're proud that you're a self made man
         G7
And your friends, they all come crawlin', slap you on the back and say,
D              Am7add11
Please.... Please.....

Trying 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.

Well, you started out with nothing,
And you're proud that you're a self made man
And your friends, they all come crawlin', slap you on the back and say,
Please.... Please.....

 

Well, I don't know why I came here tonight
I got the feeling that something ain't right
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair
And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs

Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right, here I am,
Stuck in the middle with you.
             D
Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you,
D
Stuck in the middle with you.
                  D
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you.
