When I Was A Fool Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Am Em A♯

 I re-Amread silly lines That made Emsense at the time

A♯Pages all stained with tears and red wine

 And I Amwalk through the airport and Emsee magazines

 Every A♯face that I see So much younger than me

 And I Amsmile to myself how I Emdon't even miss

 My A♯glorious past or the lips that I've kissed

 And I Amthink to myself that how Emeasy this is

A♯Easy to breathe, easy to live

CAnd I wonder why I A♯tear myself in Amtwo

 Over Chow to be, A♯what to say and what to Amdo

 And I Cknow you liked me A♯better then

 And I Amknow you liked me

Dbetter when I was a Amfool Em

 ...I was a A♯fool

 ...Ammm Em

 ...I was a A♯fool

 ...Ammm Em

AmSo EmI lA♯ive in these days

But I still have my old ways

'cause the future,

somehow, has yet to arrive

And I see all around me the women on time

Kids and divorces and crisis in midlife

and do I surrender and give up my dream

for a brick in the wall and

a washing machine

grow up and get real

for a kid in their teens

who won't care what I've done

where I've been, what I've seen

CAndA♯ I wAmonder why I tear myself in two

over who to be, how to be and what to do

and I know you liked me better then

and I know you liked me

Dbetter when I was a Amfool Em

 ...I...was a A♯fool

 ...I was a Amfool Em

 ...I was a A♯fool

AmI'mEm frA♯ee to a fault

I'm 45

I'm playing guitar

I'm living my life

Fly down the highway

Sun on my face

I belong to nobody

I belong to no place
