• Difficulty: Intermediate

Intro:

N.C.
How could this happen to us?
N.C.
The push and tug of your trust
  C     C7
The curtain's closed
  F      Fm
The door's been shut
Dm
You're tossing stones, kicking up dust
G7
You got a taste of my blood and scent
         C   B7
I'm playing the fool again
            C
I'm playing the fool again

Verse 1:
D7
What's not to love about me being obtuse?
E7
I'm not gullible enough to take a walk in your shoes
      C
The way you strut with a bluff
      C7
The way you act so aloof
       F
You wear your stupid like a three-piece suit
F
As if the necktie's a noose
Dm
You'd dance on air for a bet
  G7
Now two can play at that game, so I'm eager to bat
        C
I'm good for panic attacks
      B7
I'll even write you a check
        C
I'm used to balancing acts to up my neck

Like--oops

Uh oh

Chorus:
D7
How could this happen to us?
E7
The push and tug of your trust
  C     C7
The curtain's closed

The door's been shut
Dm
You're tossing stones, kicking up dust
G7
You got a taste of my blood and scent
         C      B7
I'm playing the fool (uh-oh) again
         C      B7
I'm playing the fool (uh-oh) again

Verse 2:
E7
Aagh! I keep it pinned to my chest and the truth is
       C
That as the older you get
       C7
The more indifferent to you
       F
The less the act all depressed
          Fm                   Dm
They'll find all sorts of new ways to get inside of your head

So keep your mouth shut
       G7
Corner your bread

They'll drag you straight out of bed
         C   B7
I'm playing the fool again

I'm playing the foo-
