Intro: 
|Dm    |Bb     |A     |      | 2x

Dm                   Bb
tell them a hole was dug for someone
   A
to really rub it in
Dm                      Bb
there is no pure integrity anymore
A
no place left to run

because of what we've done


Gm   Am     Dm   C    G7
  so cancel that last order
Eb                        D
this one won't bargain anymore
Gm                           Eb     D     Gm
this one's off on his own forever

 
Dm                  Bb
denials I thought I had to carry through
      A
would settle in my soul
Dm
slowly discrete
Bb
between the barcode
        A
and the solitary streak

that's where we used to meet


Gm   Am     Dm   C       G7
  to cancel each other's out
Eb                        D
I won't bargain for the remains
Gm                         Eb             D           Gm
I'm not expecting anything beautiful in exchange


Cm7         
someone should have told
F
homes spawn roads
Am                   F
now we're off on our own
F
I'm one of them
Dm
I'm one of those
    C
who made up the the mountains
     C7
when others carve for gold
          F
it's only fools gold
          Dm
it's only fools gold
               C
so why would I bargain


|Dm    |Bb     |A     |      | 2x


Gm   Am     Dm   C       G7
  to cancel each other's out
  Eb                        D
  I won't bargain for the remains
  Gm                           Eb           D        Gm
  I'm not expecting anything beautiful in exchange

Cm7           
someone should have told:
F
homes spawn roads
Am                   F
now we're off on our own, but hey
F
I'm one of them
Dm
I'm one of those
    C
who made up the the mountains
     C7
when others carve for gold
          F
it's only fools gold
          Dm
it's only fools gold
                C         C7
so why would I bargain?


F  
one day we'll rejoin
     Dm
with every kick in the groin
    C                C7
and spit in the eye
F
that we expected
    Dm
but never received
     C                     C7
but should have delivered
F
one day we'll rejoin
     Dm
with both sides
        C              C7
on that infamous coin 
F              Dm
someone tossed eons ago
C                       C7
that we double-cross as we go along
F       Dm
  the infamous coin
          C
it's only fools gold
          C7
it's only fools gold
          F
it's only fools gold
          Dm
it's only fools gold
                C        (fade out)
so why would I bargain?
