[C]
[C]
You're [Dm] a living, walking [D] dream [G] You're the best I've ever seen
Oh God, [C] I wanted you I've often [Dm] dreamed what I would do
[G] I'd give myself to you Oh God, [C] I wanted to
But up [Am] till now you've not been free to be [Em] Fooling around with the likes of me
But [D] it's changed now, though [Bb] it's strange how He's the one that [G] arranged it now
But he's a poor [Am] damn fool [D] Cause he went and let you go now
Just a poor [Am] damn fool [D] He never will know now
Maybe [Am] someday he'll be sad [F] I say [Dm] that that's too bad
[C] He never knew [Am] how much he had [F] I'm glad I got [C] you now
Yes, [Dm] I've had my ups and downs [G] I've been rambling around in an [C] ugly candid
I [Dm] could not believe my eyes [G] When I finally realized just what [C] that man did
Yes, I [Am] have hurt my finders keepers And [Em] our losers all the way past
[D] That's okay, I know [Bb] it's my lucky day Still [G] I just got to say that
He's a poor [Am] damn fool [D] He went and let [C] you go now
Just a poor [Am] damn fool He never will [G] know now
Maybe [Am] someday he'll be sad I got to say [Dm] that's too bad
[C] He never knew [Am] how much he had I'm glad I [C] got you now
[Bb] Oh, how I'd love to hear you say [Eb] You're glad that it worked out this [C] way
And you'll forget about yesterday [F] Cause you feel so good
[Dm] Worked out real good You make [G] me feel so good
[Dm] [G]
[C]
[Am] [Em]
[Dm] [Gm]
[Dm] I've been [A] trying to find a way to cope [G] Grasping straws and falling hopes
[C] But he's made a [G] way And [Dm] now his misfortune is my [G] gain
Though for now it gives you [C] pain It'll fade away
[Am] And you'll find that as the years roll [Em] by The memories of the times you [D] cried
Will be laid away [Bb] Yes, they'll fade away
[G] Fade away And you'll [C] forget that poor [Am] damn fool
[A] Cause he went and [G] let you go now [C] Just a poor [Am] damn fool
But he never will [G] know now Maybe [Am] someday he'll be [F] sad
I got to say that's too [C] bad He never [Am] knew how much he had
I'm glad I [C] got you now He [Dm] was a [G] poor [C] damn fool
