Lyrics

I’m a (Am7)los

(D7)er,

I’m a (Am7)los

(D7)er

and I’m (Am7)not what I ap (F)pear to (D7)be.

Of all the (Dm)love I have (F)won or have (G)lost,

there is one (Dm)love

I should (F)nev

er have (G)crossed.

She was a (Dm)girl

in a (F)mil lion, my (G)friend,

I should have (Dm)known

she would (F)win

in the (G)end.

I’m a (Am7)los

(D7)er,

and I (Am7)lost some one who’s (D7)near to me.

I’m a (G6)los

(Em7)er,

and I’m (Am7)not what I ap (F)pear to (D7)be.

Al though I (Dm)laugh

and I (F)act

like a (G)clown,

be neath this (Dm)mask

I am (F)wear

ing a (G)frown.

My tears are (Dm)fall

ing like (F)rain from

the (G)sky,

is it for (Dm)her

or my (F)self

that I (G)cry?

I’m a (Am7)los

(D7)er,

and I (Am7)lost some one who’s (D7)near to me.

I’m a (G6)los

(Em7)er,

and I’m (Am7)not what I ap (F)pear to (D7)be.

(F)pear to (D7)be.
