Intro
C Dm - Am G Bb G 
C Dm - Am G F G 

Am                    C           F
Young and bright, but now just a dim light
C           G
Off in the distance
Am              C               F
A falling stone, following the path
C           G
Of least resistance
 
F            C
If I still fight
F               C
It's just that I'm
F             C                G
Afraid I'll slide under that spell again

F     G

C             Dm - Am
Taken for a fool
G      Bb     G       C         Dm - Am
Yes I was because I was a fool
G    F   G
C                Dm - Am 
Tell me what you'd do,     
G         Bb       G          C           Dm - Am
I lost my way and she took me to school
G       F    G

Am              C              F
So many times caught up in my head at night
         C           G
With a leash and a label
Am            C                        F
If I can learn anything from this then I'd be like
      C          G
The fox in the fable oh I

F            C
If I still fight
F               C
It's just that I'm
F             C                G
Afraid I'll slide under that spell again

Dm                       G
The way we used to carry on
Dm                                   G
is stuck in my head like a terrible song

F    G

C             Dm - Am
Taken for a fool
G      Bb   G     C         Dm - Am
Yes I was and I was a fool
G    F   G
C                Dm - Am 
Following their rules    
G       Bb      G    C           Dm - Am
Guess I was a very honest tool
G       F    G

C Dm - Am G Bb G

C Dm - Am G F G

C             Dm - Am
Taken for a fool
G     Bb     G       C         Dm - Am
Yes I was because I was a fool
G    F   G

End on

F    G   C

The first team, each line has a Bb instead of an F. Took me an embarrassingly long 
time to work this out, I knew it wasn't an F, but had no fitting substitute. I've 
updated the tab accordingly. Please rate and comment! :D
