G C


[Verse 1]

G
He whispered in his ear
                    C
He told him what he wants to hear
                   Em     D
But this poor boy, he may stay strong
G
He had his own concerns
                       C
But he fell apart from words

Yeah, God, those words
     Em     D
All those reckless words


[Chorus]

G
Here in the crops of the Garden of Eden
           C                       Em D
You're the fool, you're the fool
G
Here in the crops of the Garden of Eden
           C                       Em D
You're the fool, you're the fool
           G
You're the fool, you're the fool
           Em               D
You're the fool, you're the fool


[Verse 2]

G                                               C
I've been looking for you , but you've gone far away
                                   Em      D
Now the light in my eyes starts to dissipate
G                                            C
When I knock on your gates, will you let me in?
                               Em    D
I just want to stay, stay just for a bit


[Verse 3]

G                                           C
And bless your silly son for all his wicked ways

He's got the world on a string
        Em       D
But his heart is out of place
G                                   C                   Em  D
I have watched men go back to their old ways, their old ways


[Chorus]

G
Here in the crops of the Garden of Eden
           C                       Em D
You're the fool, you're the fool
G
Here in the crops of the Garden of Eden
           C                       Em D
You're the fool, you're the fool
           G
You're the fool, you're the fool
           Em               D
You're the fool, you're the fool


[Verse 4]

G                                               C
I've been looking for you , but you've gone far away
                                   Em      D
Now the light in my eyes starts to dissipate
G                                            C
When I knock on your gates, will you let me in?
                               Em    D
I just want to stay, stay just for a bit

[Bridge]

N.C.
I should've asked someone
N.C.
I should've asked someone
N.C.
But I blamed God
N.C.
But I blame you


[Chorus]
G
Fool, you're the fool
           Em               D
You're the fool, you're the fool
           G
You're the fool

You're the fool, you're the fool
