Briston Maroney “Fool’s Gold”


Intro:
A augmentedA D MajorD B minorBm D MajorD

Verse 1:
A augmentedA
I hate to say it, but I think I'm getting too old
D MajorD
The conversations that my mind won’t even let me hold
B minorBm
Your attention isn't worth my weight in fool's gold
D MajorD
Wanna let go, can I let go?
A augmentedA
Started talking and you couldn’t look in my eyes
D MajorD
Told me stories 'bout you drinking on the 4th of July
B minorBm
Every little truth, it turned into a big lie
D MajorD           B minorBm
Why do I try? Why do I try?

Pre-Chorus:
            E MajorE
If I hold my breath 'til I fall asleep
  B minorBm            E MajorE
Will it be there when I wake?

Chorus:
A augmentedA      B minorBm    D MajorD
Maybe we can take some time
     A augmentedA         B minorBm   D MajorD
Move out west where we can do this right
    A augmentedA        B minorBm  D MajorD
Broken clock still keeps the time
   A augmentedA        B minorBm    D MajorD
Who says I've got to stay in a line?
    F# minorF#m      A augmentedA  D MajorD
I'm so sick of these city lights
   F# minorF#m     A augmentedA     D MajorD
Everything here's black and white
    F# minorF#m    A augmentedA   D MajorD
I don't know where I went wrong
   F# minorF#m  A augmentedA   D MajorD
But I surely did tonight

Verse 2:
A augmentedA
It just me or is this music playing too loud?
D MajorD
All the kids dressed in black really getting me down
B minorBm
Mother warned about hanging with the wrong crowd
D MajorD
Gotta get out, gotta get out
A augmentedA
Don't give a fuck if you intended to ignore me
D MajorD
Wish that I could close my eyes and just go back to sleep
B minorBm
That’s your best friend and she’s passed out in the backseat
D MajorD
She needs you more than me

Pre-Chorus:
B minorBm          E MajorE
If I fall asleep with my hands held tight
B minorBm             E MajorE
They'd be there when I wake

Chorus:
A augmentedA      B minorBm    D MajorD
Maybe we can take some time
     A augmentedA         B minorBm   D MajorD
Move out west where we can do this right
    A augmentedA        B minorBm  D MajorD
Broken clock still keeps the time
   A augmentedA        B minorBm    D MajorD
Who says I've got to stay in a line?
    F# minorF#m      A augmentedA  D MajorD
I'm so sick of these city lights
   F# minorF#m     A augmentedA     D MajorD
Everything here's black and white
     F# minorF#m   A augmentedA   D MajorD
And she’s calling me to bed
   F# minorF#m   A augmentedA    D MajorD
But I will not sleep tonight

Instrumental:
A augmentedA D MajorD B minorBm D MajorD x3

Outro:
N.C.
I have a tendency to overthink in my head
N.C.
Let’s just listen to some music and go back to bed
N.C.
Probably didn't hear a single word that I said
N.C.             B minorBm
Just forget it until the morn
