Love Fool - The Cardigans

Transcribed by Peter Kubes ([email protected])

This is my first submitted tab but I think it’s accurate.
All of the notes are here and if you can play the intro
throughout the verse that would be ideal. Also, it still
Sounds okay if you don’t play the bass notes on some of the
Chords.

If anyone can improve the fingerings on the chords let me know.
A augmentedA little tricky in places but it works if you are playing solo acoustic.

(1)
Intro
(2)
Dear, I fear we're facing a problem
you love me no longer, I know
and maybe there is nothing that I can do
to make you do

(2)
Mama tells me I shouldn't bother
that I ought to stick to another man
a man that surely deserves me
but I think you do!

(3)
So I cry, I pray and I beg

(4)
Love me love me
say that you love me
fool me fool me
go on and fool me
love me love me
pretend that you love me
leave me leave me
just say that you need me
Love me love me
say that you love me
leave me leave me
just say that you need me

(5)
I can't care 'bout anything but you...

(1)
Lately I have desperately pondered,
spent my nights awake and I wonder
what I could have done in another way
to make you stay
Reason will not lead to solution
I will end up lost in confusion
I don't care if you really care
as long as you don't go
