Lyrics and Chords
 
(With the main part)                     
 
I was born under a bad sign            | I always end up crying
Let out in the cold                    | A fool for your loving no more
I'm a lonely man who knows             | I'll be a fool for your loving no more
Just it means                          |              (BRIDGE)
to lose control                        | 
                                         (With the main part)
but I took all the heartache           | I'm tired of hiding my feelings
and turned into the shame              | You left me lonely for too long
Now I'm movin' movin' on               | I gave my heart and you tore it apart
and I can't take the blame             | Oh baby you done me wrong

(With part 2)                            (With part 2)

don't come runnin' to me               | Don't come running to me
I know I've done all I can             | I know I've done all I can
A hard loving woman like you           | A hard loving woman like you
just makes a hard loving man           | Just makes a hard loving man
                                       |
so I can say it to you babe            | So I can say it to you baby
           
(With Chorus)                            (With chorus)
 
I'll be a fool for your loving no more | I'll be a fool for your loving no more
a fool for your loving no more         | A fool for your loving no more                       
I'm so tired of trying                 | I'm so tired of trying
                                       | I always end up crying
                                       | a fool for your ...(etc.)
