Verse 1:
     D MajorD
They say all of the things that we must endure
G+G
Make us grow stronger and more self-assured
    D MajorD
But the hurt and the pain it never grows old
   G+G
Each heartache we heal takes a piece of our soul
   B minorBm         A augmentedA        G+G       D MajorD
I'm a fool, I'm a goddamn fool, oh I am a fool, baby for you

Verse 2:
  D MajorD
The first time I lost you I lost myself
    G+G
In the pages of books laying there on my shelf
 D MajorD
I lost you in Paris and I lost you in Rome
   G+G
And I lost you again when we got home
   B minorBm         A augmentedA        G+G       D MajorD
I'm a fool, I'm a goddamn fool, oh I am a fool, baby for you

Verse 3:
  D MajorD
Now tell me again why you hide from the world
     G+G
Like the rarest of gems, like a natural pearl
  D MajorD
The love that you give can't handle the light
  G+G
It blooms in the dark like a queen of the night
     B minorBm           A augmentedA         G+G        D MajorD
You're a fool, you're a goddamn fool, oh you are a fool, just like me

Verse 4:
    D MajorD
Now I'm running through these streets in the cold autumn rain
    G+G
Like a drunk lovesick fool I keep chanting your name
    D MajorD
But the words that you hear, you’ve heard them before
G+G
This time you tell yourself they must mean more
     B minorBm           A augmentedA         G+G        D MajorD
You're a fool, you're a goddamn fool, oh you are a fool, just like me

Outro:
   G+G
And I know that you know, that I know it ain't true
    D MajorD
As you stand there so calmly just preaching your truth
   B minorBm
And I wish that I knew what It was that we felt
    A augmentedA
Was it love, was it lust, was it something else?
   G+G       D MajorD
I'm a fool, baby for you
   G+G       D MajorD
I'm a fool, baby for you
     G+G        D MajorD
Always a fool, always for you
