Song title: Fool Hearted Memory

CAPO 1

 
A                Amaj7                  D                     E
Nickels and dimes, memories and wines - she's on his mind once again.
A                  Amaj7              D                               E
The same old stool, the same old fool; played by the rules, but didn't win.
Bm                        E
There's an old love in his heart that he can't lose.
Bm                          E
He tried forgettin', but he knows that it's no use.

[Chorus:]
 
           A    Amaj7   D
He's got a fool hearted memory.
        Bm                E
It won't let him see that she walked out the door.
           A    Amaj7   D
He's got a fool hearted memory,
    Dm      Bm                E                          A
And he sits patiently here every night so it can fool him more.

 
A                Amaj7           D                                  E
She was his girl, his only whirl, that string of pearls that slipped away.
A                Amaj7              D                         E
A thousand dimes, a thousand times - he doesn't mind what they say.
Bm                       E
He fills the jukebox, and plays the same old song.
Bm                             E
He fills his glass, and then he turns her memory on.

[Chorus:]
 

           A    Amaj7   D
He's got a fool hearted memory.
         Bm               E
It won't let him see that she walked out the door.
           A    Amaj7    D
He's got a fool hearted memory,
    Dm     Bm             E                              A
And he sits patiently here every night so it can fool him more.
 
 
          A     Amaj7   D
He's got a fool hearted memory.
        Bm                E
It won't let him see that she walked out the door.
           A     Amaj7   D
He's got a fool hearted memory,
   Dm       Bm            E                              A
And he sits patiently here every night so it can fool him more.
