Poor Little Fool chords
Ricky Nelson *
C Am F G 2x
C Am F G
I used to play around with hearts that hastened at my call,
C Am F G
But when I met that little girl I knew that I would fall.
C Am Dm G C Am F G
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh..
C Am F G
She played around and teased me with her carefree devil eyes,
C Am F G
She'd hold me close and kiss me but her heart was full of lies.
C Am F G C Am F G
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh..
C Am F G
She told me how she cared for me and that we'd never part,
C Am F G
And so for the very first time I gave away my heart.
C Am F G C Am F G
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh..
C Am F G
The next day she was gone and I knew she'd lied to me,
C Am F G
She left me with a broken heart and won her victory.
C Am F G C Am F G
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh..
C Am F G
I'd played this game with other hearts but I never thought I'd see,
C Am F G
The day that someone else would play love's foolish game with me.
C Am F G C Am F G
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh..
