CHORUS: 2D 4A 2D 2D7 2G 2A 2D
VERSE: 2A 2D 2A D D7 G A 2D 2E 2A
D (riff 1) A (riff 2)
Foolish heart, you made me weep
A (riff 2) D (riff 1)
Foolish heart, I'm yours to keep
D7 (riff 3) G (riff 4)
You're the one, that's still with me
A (riff 2) D (riff 5)
Foolish heart, don't set me free
A (riff 6) D (riff 7)
There was a time, when you said to me
A (riff 6) D D7 (riff 7)
Don't fall in love, so easily
G (riff 8) D (riff 9)
But then she walked in, and right away
E A (riff 10)
You never had another thing to say
(CHORUS) (riff 11 before solo)
BRIDGE (guitar solo)
She went away, and now we're alone
I asked her to stay, but she had to go
G (riff 8) A D
She's made up her mind, that I'm just a fool
E A (riff 10)
My love is blind, and it's all because of you
(CHORUS) (riff 12 before CODA)
Foolish heart, don't set me free (CODA)
