A              D
Well, in the mornin' when I rise 
E                   A
Wipe that sleep out of my eyes 
A                  D
Guess it should be no surprise 
    E             A
You never made it home 
A                 D
Another night out on the town 
         E                   A
You were paintin' it red and tearin' it down 
A                     D
Must have got lost on your way home 
    E          A
Now here we go again 
 
(chorus) 
          A       D
I've been holdin' on 
       E                      A
When I should've been lettin' go 
           A      D
So I'll be movin' along 
           E              A
Think it's time I hit the road 
    A              D
I'm sure you'll be lookin' 
          E              A
To find a man to take my place 
         A          D
Well, it won't take long 
                 E               A
'Cause there's a fool born every day 
        A                 D
Well, I was your fool for oh so long 
E                         A
Wouldn't believe what was goin' on 
A                 D
Should've seen it all along 
    E                  A
How could I've been so blind 
A                D
Before I hit the edge of town 
          E                   A
You'll be out there somewhere foolin' around 
A                 D
This old truck is headin' southbound 
    E                     A
You won't see nothin' but dust 

(chorus twice) 
        A          D
Yea, it won't take long 
                 E               A
'Cause there's a fool born every day
