Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Em][Bm][A][C][A][D][Em][Bm]
[A]
[G][A][Bm]

[Verse 1]
Young and [D]bright
But now just a [G]dim light
[D]Off in the dis[A]tance[Bm]
A falling [Em]stone
[D]Following the pat[G]h
[D]Of least res[A]istance[G]

[Verse 2]
If I still [D]fight, [G]it's just that I'm[D][G]
Afraid I'll [D]slide under that
[A]spell [G]again[A]

[Verse 3]
[D]Taken for a [Em]fool[Bm][A]
Yes, I [C]was be[A]cause I was [D]a
[Em]fool[Bm][A][G][A]
[D]Tell me what you [Em]do[Bm][A]
I lost my [C]way in [A]shades of neither
[D]school
[Em][Bm][A][G][A]

[Verse 4]
[Bm]
So many [D]times
Caught up in my [G]head at night
With a [D]leash and a la[A]bel[Bm]
If I can [D]learn
Anything from this, then [G]I'd be like
The [D]fox in [A]the fable [G]of ?

[Verse 5]
If I still [D]fight, [G]it's just that I'm[D][G]
Afraid I'll [D]slide under
that [A]spell again

[Verse 6]
[Em]
The way we used to [Bm]carry [A]on[Em]
Is stuck in my head like a
terrible song
[A][G][A]

[Verse 7]
[D]Taken for a [Em]fool[Bm][A]
Yes I [C]was, [A]and I was [D]a f[Em]ool
[A][Bm][A][G][A]
[D]Following their [Em]rules[Bm][A]
Guess I [C]was a [A]very hon[D]est tune

[Interlude 1]
[Em][A][Bm][A][G][A]
[D][Em][Bm][A][C][A][D][Em][A][Bm][A][G]
[A]

[Verse 8]
[D]Taken for a [Em]fool[Bm][A]
Yes I [C]was, be[A]cause I was [D]a
[Em]fool[Bm]

[Outro 1]
