[Intro 1]
[G][Am][G][Am][C][Am]

[Verse 1]
[G]Love,
what have you [Am]done? [G]Oh, [Em]wow
I was sure up [C#dim]to now th[F#]at she was a frie[B]nd
I [Em]stayed [B]'til the[C] end (don't be
a [D]fool [G]again)
I once believed [Am]that love was [G]fair[Em]
But I don't [F#]anymore, she said I'm a [B]bore
My [Em]heart hit [B]the floor [C](don't be a
[Am]fool[D] any[C]more)

[Verse 2]
Each time around [C]I tell
myself it's the [G]game of [Bm]love[Em]
[C]Ignore the signs and risk it
all in the name [G]of [Em]love
[C]Well, I've decided I can't
[Am]let nobody h[F#]urt me a[Bm]gain
So I'll [C]say to the end
I just [F]don't want to be a fool
(don't want to be a fool)
Said I [Dsus4]don't want to [C]be a foo[D]l eve[Am]r
[D]again

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][G][Am][C][D]

[Verse 3]
[G]Whenever a [C]fool's [Am]in love,
[G]he [Em]doesn't know he's to blam[C#dim]e
[F#]He's caught in the game[B]
[Em]It all ends up the [B]same [C](he doesn't
feel [D]the [G]shame)
He looks at love [D]in a [Am]differ[C]ent [G]way
[Em]It breaks his heart ev'rytime
[F#]they all turn out [B]strange
But [Em]he'll nev[B]er [C]change
(he's never gonna change)

[Verse 4]
Next time around, [C]I'll
tell myself it'll be bet[G]ter than [Bm]before[Em]
[C]I won't look back
There'll be no one tearing
my [G]heart out [Em]anymore
[C]I just decided I can't let[Am]
nobody [F#]fool [Bm]me again
So [C]I'll swear to the end
I just [F]don't wanna be a fool
(don't wanna be a fool)
Said I [Dsus4]don't wanna [C]be a fool
[D]ever [B]again[Em]
(No way) I mean [B]no more (never again) ooh,

[Verse 5]
no never
[Em](I can't be [C]a fool) can't be,
no [G]way, no way, [C]no [G]way
I don't [C]want to be
[C#dim]I don't want to[Dsus4] be a fool,[D]
[G]no

[Verse 6]
[C](I can't love) I can't love
[G](anybody) nobody
(Walking on a one [Bm]way street) any [Em]way,
any way, any way, [C]no
(If I don't) if I don't
(find somebody) somebody- [Em]body[G]
(That'll be alright with me) I [Em]know,
I know it'll be alright now
[C]'Cause I've decided not to
[Am]let nobody k[F#]ill [Bm]me again
[C]So I'll

[Verse 7]
say to the end
I just [F]don't want to be a fool
(don't want to be a fool)
Said I [Dsus4]don't want to [C]be a fool (don't want
[Dsus4]to be a fool) ever, ever[G] again
[C](Don't want to [Am]be a[C][G]
fool) can't be [D]a fool[C]
(Don't want [Am]to b[C]e a[G]
fool) ever again
[C](I don't want to be a [G]fool) never,
oh never, oh never again
[C](Don't want to be [G]a
fool) can't be a fool
