lyrics

Wise Words to a Fool . A Vann Aug 2009

C F
He reads his magazine
E Am G D7
She sits alone and dreams of him
F
The man she loved –
Fm C Am
The one that got away.

C F
He cleans his motorcar
E Am G D7
She’s in the garden pulling weeds
F
They’ll grow again –
Fm C F
Like the doubts inside her head


CHORUS:
D7 F C Am
Why must we hurt the ones we love the most?
D7 F C E7
Why do we bite the hand that feeds us love, love, love
D7 F C Am
When will we learn the lessons taught in school?
F Fm C F
They’re handed down like wise words to a fool

Whistled verse

C F
He plays his shoot-em-ups
E Am G D7
She makes another morning cup
F
And dwells upon
Fm C
The life that never was

CH repeat, then repeat the last 3 lines til end.
