He won't change her life 
He just chasing tail 
And wasting her time 
She calls herself his wife 
He calls her at 8 says be here by 9 
She don't notice how when she gets the ring 
It's not a good fit 
So next time that they row 
She throws it out 
It goes to the last girl he hit

So take the gold you find
And for your own sake
Hold it in your hand
Now make sure you bite down
And watch your tooth don't break on that wedding band
[Chorus]
A7For me it ain't real
Am7It's fools gold
G#m7There too many fools sold
FdimNot an excuse oh
A7For me it ain't real
