People say, I'm the life of the party

Acting like I'm having fun   
             Dmaj7            
Although she may be cute   
             G     A7    
She's just a substitute

Inside, my hope is fading   
           G                D   
I'm just a clown, since you put me down   
    Em         F#m   
My smile is my make-up

I wear since my break-up with you
