Verse 1
G       Em              Bm   C
  Sweet Sunday afternoon, September's golden brown
G        Em                  Bm         C
  Summer always fades too soon like the laughter of a clown
G  Em                  Bm      C
   Shadows fill the room where sorrows come to drown
G      Em                  Bm      C
  Your heart’s a late bloom as you sink another one down


Pre-Chorus 1
Am          D
  I know it knows the way you feel
Am              D
  Blurs what is right and what is real
Am           Em                       D
  There's no love left you could steal


Chorus
        C                 G
For the joker, love is so long
       Em         A7
As the jesters outsmarts it
        C                Em                 D
And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost
        C                G
And the sad mind sings a song
        Em                  A7
For the drunk and broken-hearted
        C                   D               
And the fool, he never knows how much it cost

Verse 2
G           Em             Bm    C
  The sweet Sunday afternoon and all that candy heart
G       Em                Bm             C
  Is an old, familiar tune for you’ve forgotten half the words
G     Em                     Bm       C
  The sunlight floods the room like a silent flock of birds
G     Em              Bm      C
  And hopes a red bloom, disappearing through the clouds
 
 
Pre-Chorus 2
Am          D
  I know it knows the way you feel
Am              D
  Blurs what is right and what is real
Am           Em                     D
  There's no one here to make a deal with
 
 
Chorus
        C                 G
For the joker, love is so long
       Em         A7
As the jesters outsmarts it
        C                Em                 D
And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost
        C                G
And the sad mind sings a song
        Em                  A7
For the drunk and broken-hearted
        C                   D
And the fool, he never knows how much it cost

Chorus
                C                   G
Yeah, well, the joker, he loves the long
       Em         A7
As the jesters outsmarts it
                         Em                 D
And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost
            C                     G
Oh, and the sad mind, he, sings a song
        Em                  A7
For the drunk and broken-hearted
             C                  D                
Oh, and the fool, he never knows how much it cost
           C                  D                G
Well, the fool, he never knows how much it cost
