Fools Gold

F    C              F           C
If I only knew then what I know now
    F                      C
You wouldn't be sayin' goodbye
      F       C          F     C
But I let you down I was never around
         F                       C
When you needed me there by your side

F                G7
I took a perfect love
    Em                 Am
And gave you a perfect heartache
F                Em
I took a band of gold
           D7          G7
And made a 24-carat mistake


And turned it into
Am                                 F
Fool's gold and I was a fool cause I let you go
Am                                 F
Fool's gold yes I was a fool cause I didn't know
Am               Em
Too many times I just didn't try
    Am                    D7            Am
And now all I hear is you sayin' goodbye
F                   C            F      C    F
Starin' at an empty hand full of fool's gold

   C                       F           C
If I'd spent the time just holdin' you tight
    F                        C
And sharin' my feelings with you
     F          C              F            C
Then you'd understand what's inside of this man
          F                   C
And you'd know what I'm goin' through

F                 G7
I know that I was wrong
Em                Am
Now that it's too late
F                Em
I took a band of gold
           D7          G7
And made a 24-carat mistake
