The chords above are great. I believe a couple of changes at the beginning
are in order....

D                  C
I've gotta stop faking it
                   G         D
I've gotta start facing it
                    G
I'm gonna take my final bow
 C                      F            F/E
Then I'm gonna take my place in the crowd
                 Dm        Dm/C    Bb
I know I'll get used to it
  Bb            A
I've gotta stop acting like a clown
