But when I turn around there’s no one there
           Am                              Dm7
And it’s a real bad sign, I’m walking on a real thin line
  C                                   G
A fool in love with a fool that never cared

Oh, ask anyone you know and they’ll say love fades away
    Dm7          C               F      G
But this heart's crying just like yesterday

A fool in love with a fool that never cared
