A                      E
Remember the summer we sat in the rain
Bm                       D              A
Counting the cars on the Southern bound trains

And just for a moment
    E
Our gazes would meet
Bm                         D        A        D   E   D   A
Lips just an instant from kisses so sweet


A
So what ever happened
E
You turned away
    Bm                     D              A
And I never thought of the right thing to say
                     E
So many times i have thought of the kiss
Bm
We never shared
           D          A
Now you?re telling me this

D
You could have fooled me
  A
I had no idea
     E                   A
That you were so very in love with me, dear
D
You did not show it
    A             F#m
And now it seems cruel
                D
You could have fooled me
    E            D   A
I?m that much a fool

D   E   D   A

A                       E
You were a brother, a friend, and a man
       Bm                     D          A
Who i thought I knew like the back of my hand

Now you?re here waiting
      E
Your eyes wet with tears
    Bm                  D       A
Confessing a love after so many years

     D
Well you could have fooled me
  A
I had no idea
E                    A
You were so very in love with me, dear
D
You did not show it
    A            F#m
And now it seems cruel
                D
You could have fooled me
    E            D   A
I?m that much a fool

D   A    E   A   D  A  F#m   D  E  D  A

       F#m
Well i waited
     Bm
And wondered
      D                        A
What seems like a lifetime and then
   F#m             B7
i loved you like a brother
     D                     E
And cherished you so as a friend

A                    E
Remember the winter you went away
Bm                     D             A
Something inside of me died on that day

And now i am married
  E
I play by the rules
   Bm
I cannot go with you
     D           A
I'm that much a fool

D
But you could have fooled me
  A
I had no idea
      E                  A
That you were so very in love with me, dear
D
You did not show it
    A             F#m
And now it seems cruel
          D
You could have fooled me
    E            D    A   D   E   D   A
I?m that much a fool
