For A Fool chords by The Shins

Guitar chords with lyrics

Capo III

Am                    C           F
Young and bright, but now just a dim light
C           G
Off in the distance
Am              C               F
A falling star, following the path
C           G
Of least resistance

F            C
If I still fight
F               C
It's just that I'm
F             C                G
Afraid I'll slide under that spell again

F     G

C             Dm - Am
Taken for a fool
G      F     G       C         Dm - Am
Yes I was because I was a fool
G    F   G
C                Dm - Am
Tell me what you do,
G          F       G          C           Dm - Am
I lost my way to shades of neither school
G       F    G

Am              C              F
So many times caught up in my head at night
         C           G
With a leash and a label
Am            C                        F
If I can learn anything from this then I'd be like
      C          G
That fox in the fable oh I

F            C
If I still fight
F               C
It's just that I'm
F             C                G
Afraid I'll slide under that spell again

Dm                       G
The way we used to carry on
Dm                                   G
is stuck in my head like a terrible song

F    G

C             Dm - Am
Taken for a fool
G      F     G       C         Dm - Am
Yes I was because I was a fool
G    F   G
C                Dm - Am
Following their rules
G        F      G    C           Dm - Am
Guess I was a very honest tool
G       F    G

C Dm - Am G F G x2

C             Dm - Am
Taken for a fool
G      F     G       C         Dm - Am
Yes I was because I was a fool
G    F   G

End on
