FOOLISH YOU
Kate and Anna McGarrigle
(Witten by Wade Hemsworth)

Tuning: Standard
Capo: 2nd Fret

Intro: F C G7 C 

        C        G7           C
Foolish you, you want to go away,
        D7                       G    G7
Seeking fortune's favour on your own,
          C       Am       Dm7 F
While the one who stays beside you
        G   G7           C
Foolish me,    is left alone.


Chorus:
        G                     C
Sad and foolish, that's how I feel,
          F                        C    C7
Don't you know how fortune favours few?
          F                  C       Am7
Fortune's blind, as blind as you, my dear,
       G7                 C   (C7 First time only) 
What a pity, ah, foolish you!

1st TIME: Bridge - F G C
2nd TIME: Instrumental – same chords as verse


        C       G7            C
Leaving me this way is hardly fair,
     D7                  G    G7
Must I go seek a fortune too,
          C         Am    Dm7       F
Or must I wait till folly finds its own way 
G       G7             C
Home to me and foolish you?


       C       G7             C
Loving you was good, love was kind,
         D7                    G   G7
I didn't mind the payments overdue,
        C        Am        Dm7      F
For the price of loving is none too dear,
   G       G7               C
As long as I'm with foolish you.


(Slowly) 
         G                     C
Sad and foolish, that's how I feel,
       F                       C   C7
When I see the foolish way you do,
        F                  C        Am
Fortune fails when you are gone my dear,

(Normal Speed)
      G7                         C
But I still want more of foolish you,
   G7                            C C7 F Dm7 C G7 C G7 C
I sti-ll wa-nt mo-re of foolish you.
