I'm a fool now that it's over

Can you guess my name?
A              D
I make my money singing songs about you
E
It's my claim to fame
A             D
When they say it's over
E
It's not all over, there's still the pain

A               D
If I said I was sorry
E
Would you still leave me?
A               D

Believe me

When they say it's over

It's not all over completely

      D                    E              A
Oh na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na


And thats it, not too hard but a couple of tricky licks in the solo, which can be used as a nice bluesy warmup
exercise.

Thanks for reading!
