Poor Little Fool

F Dm Gm C
F Dm Gm C


[Verse 1]
  F             Dm                
I used to play around with hearts 
     Gm              C
that hastened at my call,
    F               Dm            
But when I met that little girl I 
Gm                 C
knew that I would fall.

[Chorus]
            F        Dm    Bb     
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a
 C        F   Dm Gm C
 fool, uh huh..

[Verse 2]
    F                 Dm          
She played around and teased me 
       Gm              C
with her carefree devil eyes,
      F                 Dm        
She'd hold me close and kiss me 
      Gm                 C
but her heart was full of lies.

[Chorus]
            F        Dm    Gm    
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was 
   C        F   Dm Gm C
a fool, uh huh..

[Verse 3]
    F               Dm            
She told me how she cared for me 
   Gm               C
and that we'd never part,
    F               Dm           
And so for the very first time I 
Gm            C
gave away my heart.

[Chorus]
            F        Dm    Gm    
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was 
   C        F   Dm Gm C
a fool, uh huh..

[Verse 4]
    F                Dm         
The next day she was gone and I 
Gm                  C
knew she'd lied to me,
    F              Dm             
She left me with a broken heart 
  Gm            C
and won her victory.

[Chorus]
            F        Dm    Gm    
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was 
   C        F   Dm Gm C
a fool, uh huh..

[Verse 5]
    F                     Dm  
I'd played this game with other 
               Gm                 C
hearts but I never thought I'd see,
    F                Dm           
The day that someone else would 
          Gm                 C
play love's foolish game with me.

[Chorus]
            F        Dm    Gm    
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was 
   C        F   Dm Gm C
a fool, uh huh..
