The Fool

• G

(Heavy Palm muting)
G                                               C
 i'm starting to think the thoughts i shouldn't think

 i think i think too much
   G                            D
 i think that i forgot how to relax or just have fun
     G                              C                           G
 but all of my attempts have met success much more than i would guess
                D                 G
 i guess that i might not be dead yet

(release P.M.)

   G                                   C
 i am the king, i've got my sons, i've got my swords, i've got my words
      G                            D
 i've got the strength that i need to kill all my foes
     G
 the years go by, my eyes run dry
      C
 it's so hard to smile sometimes
    D      G                D
 i feel so alone upon this throne


 C
 all of this, i did for her
     D
 the treasure from the dragon's lair
     G                     D               C
 the gold, the jewels, the castle, and the cat
    C                                D
 so many say they're proud of me and i'm a good and honest king
     G            D            C
 but honestly it doesn't mean shit to me without her,
    G            C              G
 it doesn't mean shit to me without her.
        G
 'cause what's a king without his queen?
          C
 how much happiness can power bring?
      G                           D
 i'd trade it all for a chance to fall in love again
      G
 when will i find a heart like mine?
   C
 a heart like hers, i want sometime
   G              D               G
 i try and try, i think i try too hard
     G
 can i repair all my despair?
     C                           G                             D
 can i hide how i feel inside, enough at least to make myself look half 
 
 alive?
 G                                   C
 what a king, what songs i sing, sad melodies and sorry things
  G               D                  G
 i hope to bring a change in this one day
        C                                    D
 'cause what would people think of me, their melancholy, lonely king
      G             D             C
 that sings of such sad and sorry things
     C
 and all the while i look for smiles
     D                                G                 D           C
 and preach about the way we're gonna make this world into a better place

(heavy palm muting)
    G
 so maybe everything's alright
       C                                    G
 we'll stay up late riding our bikes, we'll talk until you have to go to 
 D
 school
 G                                C
 maybe i'm not broke so bad, just sing a song that's not so sad
    G             D        G
 am i the king or am i the fool?

(realease P.M.)

 G                                C
 maybe i'm not broke so bad, just sing a song that's not so sad
    G             D(end on)G
 am i the king or am i the fool?
