Artist: Rufus Wainwright
Title: Foolish Love
Single Strum in the intro
[Intro]
D               F#m          G       D
I don't want to hold you and feel so helpless
D               F#m           G       D
I don't want to smell you and lose my senses
    Gm            D
And smile in slow motion
     A       D
With eyes in love
  G     A       D
I twist like a corkscrew
    Gm   A    D
The sweetness rising
  G              A       C  C/B
I drink from the bottle, weeping
A             D
Why won't you last?
Aaug          D
Why can't you last?
Em F#m
[Verse 1]
          D    G       D
So I will walk without care
G       D
Beat my snare
G           D             A
Look like a man who means business
D             G       D
Go to all the poshest places
             G      D
With their familiar faces
G         D            A
Terminate all signs of weakness
[Chorus]
    D   G       D
Oh, all for the sake
D   G       D
All for the sake
     Em F#m  D    A
Of a foolish love
[Verse 2]
       D       G      D
I will take my coffee black
G     D
Never snack
G             D              A
Hang with the wolves who are sheepish
D                G        D
Flow through the veins of town
G      D
Always frown
G         D             A
Me and my mistress, the princess
[Chorus]
    D   G       D
Oh, all for the sake
D   G       D
All for the sake
     Em F#m  D
Of a foolish love
A         Em F#m D A
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
       D   G      D   G           D
So the day Noah's ark floats down park
   G            D             A
My eyes will be simply glazed over
          D   G         D         G       D
Or better yet I'll wear shades on sunless days
             G               D           A
And when the sun's out, I'll stay in and slumber
[Chorus]
    D   G       D
Oh, all for the sake
D   G       D
All for the sake
     Em F#m  D
Of a foolish love
G       D
For the sake
D   G       D
All for the sake
     Em F#m  D   A
Of a foolish love
[Outro]
D                            G       D
I don't want to hold you and feel so helpless
D                             G       D
I don't want to smell you and lose my senses
    Gm            D
And smile in slow motion
     A       D
With eyes in love
