FOOLISH GAMES
Intro : Dm Bb F C (2x)
You to[Dm]ok your coat off an[Bb]d stood in the rain,[F]
You were always crazy lik[C]e that
I[Dm] watched from my window,[Bb]
always felt[F] I was outside looking in on you[C]
[Dm]You were always the mysterious one
with dar[Bb]k eyes and careless hair,
You were fashionably[F] sensitive, but too cool to care[C]
[Dm]Then you stood in my doorway,[Bb] with nothing to say[F]
besides some comment [C]on the weather
[Gm]Well in case you failed to notice,
[Bb]In case you failed to see,
T[F]his is my heart bleeding before you,
This [C]is me down on my knees
[Bb]These foolish game[C]s are tearing m[F]e apart[Dm]
[Bb]Your thoughtless words [C]are breaking m[F]y heart[Bb]
You're breaking my hea[Dm]rt
Y[Dm]ou were always brilliant in the morning[Bb]
Smoking your cigarett[F]es, talking over coffee[C]
[Dm]Your philosophies on art, Baroque [Bb]moved you,
You loved Mozart and you'd speak[F] of your loved ones
As I cl[C]umsily strummed my guitar
[Dm]You'd teach me of honest things
[Bb]Things that were daring, things that were clean
[F]Things that knew what an honest doll[C]ar did mean
So[Dm] I hid my soiled hands behind my[Bb] back
[F] [C]
Somewhere along the line I must've gone off track with you
[Gm] Excuse me, think I've mistaken you for somebody els[Bb]e
[F] Somebody who gave a damn,
[C] Somebody more like myself
[Bb] These foolish game[C]s are tearing m[F]e apart[Dm]
[Bb] Your thoughtless words [C]are breaking m[F]y heart[Bb]
You're breaking my hea[Dm]rt
[Dm]You took your coat[Bb] off and stood in the rain[F]
Last of all in between the Chorus and the Verses you'd want to
add in a few strummings of the intros, how exactly? listen to the
track! So that'll be all for today, till then!!!!!
