             F            Am/E 
There was a time, a happy time, 
          Cm/Eb              D7 
I took my heart ...to every party, 
D7sus4                  Gm                     Gm/F 
        They'd point my way, 'How are you to - day?' 
                  C7/E              F4        F 
'Will you make us laugh, chase our blues a - way?' 
 F/C    F       Fmaj7                  Cm7/F   F7 
Their funny man     ....won't let them down, 
         Bb                   Bbm6 
No, I'd dance and prance, and be their clown, 
      F/C           C          C7    Gm/F               F 
That time, a happy time, that even a fool--- learns to love! 


Verso 2 
      F                   Am/E 
The clown   ...turned a - round, 
            Cm/Eb                     D7       D7sus4 
And saw her smile,   ...oh, how she loved me, 
                Gm               Gm/F 
She'd clap her hands, and beg me stay, 
            C7/E                F4      F 
To make her laugh, to make her life gay, 
     F/C       F    Fmaj7             Cm7/F    F7 
Who wants the love      ...of all the world, 
               Bb                 Bbm6 
When here was love in the eyes of just one girl? 
     F/C                 C         C7    Gm/F               F 
That day, that precious day, when even a fool--- learns to love! 


Verso 3 
     Am  C7        F    Fmaj7             Cm7/F 
But, oh, how I dreamed,       a marvelous dream, 
       F7          Bb        Bbmaj7      Bb 
Where all of the heavens, or so it had seemed, 
       Am7            Gm7                          C 
With thunderous ap - plause, looked down from a - bove, 
      C/Bb         Am   Am7         Dm   Dm7 
On a clown and an angel so much in love, 
                   Gm7                     C 
I'll stay with my dream, it takes such a dream, 
     C7    Gm/F                F 
And even a fool---- learns to love! 


Verso 4 
      F                   Am/E 
That day, ...that hateful day, 
                Cm/Eb                    D7    D7sus4 
The joke turned stale,  ...the game was over, 
                Gm                Gm/F 
Those spiteful words, 'Oh, go a - way! 
             C7/E                 F4        F 
Who wants to play?  It's getting late now!' 
F/C   F    Fmaj7            Cm7/F    F7 
 My world,     ...my funny world, 
              Bb                Bbm6 
Had lost its mask, and shown a broken heart, 
  F/C            C         C7    Gm/F                F 
A time, a sour time, when even a fool---- learns to love! 


Verso 5 
     Am  C7        F    Fmaj7             Cm7/F 
But, oh, how I dreamed,       a marvelous dream, 
       F7          Bb        Bbmaj7      Bb 
Where all of the heavens, or so it had seemed, 
       Am7             Gm7                         C 
With thunderous ap - plause, looked down from a - bove, 
     C/Bb          Am   Am7         Dm   Dm7 
On a clown and an angel so much in love, 
                   Gm7                     C 
I'll stay with my dream, it takes such a dream, 
     C7    Gm/F                F 
And even a fool---- learns to love!
