Fools Gold chords by The Rainmakers

Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
F#F#     BB
I heard you telling your friends
     F#F#     C#C#
Aw, he's harmless enough
        BB
There's almost nothing

You could've said
        F#F#     C#C#
That would have hurt me so much
      BB
But how to risk all you got
   F#F#     C#C#
Oh, i forget, you forgot

Or you'd see that
BB
Harmless is one thing
     F#F#    C#C#
I'm most certainly not

     BB        F#F#
It's all fool's gold, my dear
     G#m7G#m7      F#F#
It's all fool's gold, my dear
      BB
It's hardly ever like you think
      F#F#       C#C#
It's almost always like you fear
     BB      F#F#       G#m7G#m7    BB C#C#
It's all fool's gold,    it's all fool's gold

Verse 2:
       BB
When we were young

We went dancing
   F#F#     C#C#
To a band at the Rink
       BB
They were so far out

Of tune and time
     F#F#     C#C#
And they didn't even blink
       BB
They were the best in the world
     F#F#     C#C#
As far as we were concerned
       BB
I heard them two years on
    F#F#
It was amazing
      C#C#
What they'd learned
     BB
Twice as cool, twice as fast
     F#F#       C#C#
Twice as loud, twice as long
       BB
They were at least twice as good
     F#F#      C#C#
And about half as much fun

     BB        F#F#
It's all fool's gold, my dear
     G#m7G#m7      F#F#
It's all fool's gold, my dear
      BB
It's not so much what you know
      F#F#      C#C#
As what you believe to be so
     BB      F#F#       G#m7G#m7    BB C#C#
It's all fool's gold,    it's all fool's gold

Verse 3:
     BB
I was in traffic by a man
     F#F#      C#C#
Reading a book while he drives

He couldn't
BB
Stay between the lanes

He couldn't
F#F#        C#C#
Read between the lines
   BB
So I ran him off the road
     F#F#      C#C#
The first chance that I got
   BB
See, harmless is one thing
     F#F#      C#C#
A augmentedA little knowledge is not


     BB        F#F#
It's all fool's gold, my dear
     G#m7G#m7      F#F#
It's all fool's gold, my dear
  BB
Oh, sometimes the facts
       F#F#  C#C#
Can make the truth disappear
     BB      F#F#       G#m7G#m7    BB C#C#
It's all fool's gold,    it's all fool's gold

Verse 4:
      BB
I think God honored my oath
      F#F#      C#C#
And He one day struck me blind
     BB
Because I can't see the forest
    F#F#     C#C#
For the matchsticks sometimes
    BB
Oh, if ignorance is bliss
    F#F#      C#C#
I'm the happiest man alive
    BB
I do so want to believe
      F#F#  C#C#
I'm so damn dumb sometimes
     BB
I imagine politics and love
   F#F#   C#C#
Where neither exist
      BB
Mistake the handshake

Of friendship
    F#F#      C#C#
For the hate-shaking fist
       BB
It's like the Lost Dutchman mine
    F#F#    C#C#
It's a fictional claim
     BB
But we've no other choice
       F#F#     C#C#
Than to keep mining that vein


     BB        F#F#
It's all fool's gold, my dear
     G#m7G#m7      F#F#
It's all fool's gold, my dear
      BB
It's hardly ever what you think
      F#F#       C#C#
It's almost always like you fear
     BB      F#F#       G#m7G#m7    BB C#C#
It's all fool's gold,    it's all fool's gold
