Poor Little Fool

C Am F G  2x

  C             Am                     F              G
I used to play around with hearts that hastened at my call,
    C               Am            F                 G
But when I met that little girl I knew that I would fall.

            C        Am    Dm      G        C   Am F G
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh..

    C                 Am                 F              G
She played around and teased me with her carefree devil eyes,
      C                 Am              F                 G
She'd hold me close and kiss me but her heart was full of lies.

            C        Am    F       G        C   Am F G
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh..

    C               Am               F               G
She told me how she cared for me and that we'd never part,
    C               Am           F            G
And so for the very first time I gave away my heart.

            C        Am    F       G        C   Am F G
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh..

    C                Am         F                  G
The next day she was gone and I knew she'd lied to me,
    C              Am               F            G
She left me with a broken heart and won her victory.

            C        Am    F       G        C   Am F G
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh..

    C                     Am                 F                 G
I'd played this game with other hearts but I never thought I'd see,
    C                Am                     F                 G
The day that someone else would play love's foolish game with me.

            C        Am    F       G        C   Am F G
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh..
