          Stuck In The Middle 






Intro: D (: 8x)

Verse 1:

       D                             D
Well I don't know why I came here to-night
          D                            D
I got the feeling that something ain't right
       G7                           G7
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair
        D                               D
And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs
A
Clowns to the left of me 
C             G             D
Jokers to the right, here I am,
                         D
Stuck in the middle with you.


Verse 2:

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.


Bridge:

         G7                                  G7
Well you started out with nothing and you're proud that you're a 
              D (: 2x)
Self made man.
         G7                              G7
And your friends, they all come crawlin, slap you on the back and say
D (: 2x)       A7 (: 2x)
Please....     Please.....

Interlude: D (: 4x)

Verse 3:

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...

(Intrumental Verse)
(Bridge)
(Repeat first verse)

version 2











The strumming is quite strange with 4 down beats in a bar but the 2nd and 4th down beat is dampened to get
that tinny drum sound to get the beat of the song. Or you can just miss out the last down strokes to get a
down up down up     up     up rhythm. Strumming is normal on the G7 bridge section
