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  
But I let you down I was never 
   C
around
         F                      
When you needed me there by your 
 C
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

Starin' at an empty hand full of

fool's gold

   C                       F      
If I'd spent the time just holdin'

And sharin' my feelings with you

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