No More the Fool Elkie Brooks
My first post here, hope you like it.
Sounds good in B but this I wrote in D major.
A beautiful song. Comments welcome!
1st verse:
[D]Just why I stayed [G]around
[A]When all I [Bm]found was [A]heartache
[D]I believed your every [G]word
[F#]Didn't know the [Bm]hurt and pain that [A]you'd make
[C]But why did it [G]take so long
[Em]Alas now I've seen the light
[C]I've found the heart [D]to say
Chorus:
[G]No more the fool who [Em]waits around
Waiting for you to bring [C]me down
Those days are [D]gone now
[G]No more the nights lying [Em]awake
[D]Crying and [E]waiting for the day [C]to break
No more the [D]sound as my dreams
[G]Fall and hit [C]the ground
While I [D]wait around
No more the [G]fool
2nd verse:
[D]You thought I'd break, then you were [G]wrong
[A]That I won't see what's [Bm]going on
But I [A]knew
[D]Here I am, I'm [G]alive
[F#]And you'll see [Bm]I'll survive [A]without you
[C]And I won't be the [G]one who comes running
[Em]It ain't like it used to be
[C]It's your turn to run [D]to me
Chorus:
[G]No more the fool who [Em]waits around
Waiting for you to bring [C]me down
Those days are [D]gone now
[G]No more the nights lying [Em]awake
[D]Crying and [E]waiting for the day [C]to break
No more the [D]sound as my dreams
[G]Fall and hit [C]the ground
While I [D]wait around
No more the [G]fool
Bridge1:
**Talking**
All the nights I've waited for you to call
I've waited for a sign that you would stay
But it's so clear
You didn't care at all
[F]No [C]more the [G]fool

[G](No more the fool, who [Em]waits around)
[G](No more the fool, [Em]no more the clown)

And [C]hits the ground No more the [D]fool
Chorus:
[G]No more the fool who [Em]waits around
Waiting for you to bring [C]me down
Those days are [D]gone now
[G]No more the nights lying [Em]awake
[D]Crying and [E]waiting for the day [C]to break
No more the [D]sound as my dreams
[G]Fall and hit [C]the ground
While I [D]wait around
No more the [G]fool
