_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ Whatever [A]
happened to the funky [Bb] race?
A generation [C]
lost in [G] pace?
Wasn't life [F] supposed to be more than [Bb] this?
In this kiss, [C] I'll change your bow for my [G] bliss
Click on my hand and it [F] will slip from the sand
[Bb] If you don't give me the chance to [C] break down the walls of attitude
[G] _ _ I [A] ask nothing of you
_ [Bb] Not even your [C]
gratitude
_ [Bb] And if you think I'm corny then [C] it will not make me sorry
[Dm] It's your right to laugh at [F] me
And in [Bb] time, it's my opportunity [C]
to feel _ [Dm] brave
_ _ [F] _
Cause it [Bb] takes a fool to remain sane
[C] _
Oh, it [Dm] takes a fool to remain sane
[F] _
Oh, it [Bb] takes a fool to remain sane
[C] _
Oh, in [D] this world all covered up in [F] shame
_ _ _ [G] Every morning I would [F] see her getting off the bus
[Bb] The picture never dropped, it's [C] like a multicolored snapshot
[G] Stuck in my brain, [F] it kept me sane
[Bb] For a couple of years, [C] as it drenched my face
[G] Of becoming like the others, [F] who become unhappy mothers
[Bb] And fathers of unhappy [C] kids
And why's that?
Cause [Bb] they've forgotten how to play
[C] _
Or maybe [Dm] they're afraid to feel [F] ashamed
To seem _ [Bb] strange, to seem [C] insane
To gain weight, to [Dm] seem gay
I tell you [F] this
That it [Bb] takes a fool to remain [C] sane
Oh, it [D] takes a fool to remain _ [F]
sane
Oh, it [Bb] takes a fool to remain [C] sane
Oh, in [D] this world all covered up in [F]
shame
Oh, take it to the [Bb] stage
Oh, _ [C] _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ [G] take it to the stage
[F] In a multicolored jacket
[C] Take a jackpot, crackpots
Dropping like a [G] peacock
Native on a shark and [F] saw
Shimmy shammy feather [Bb] ball
Crackpot, hair cut [C] style
Herring glowing [D] red [Bb] and blue
Do, do, [C] do
What you [C] wanna [Dm] do
Don't be twice [F] due
What you have to [Bb] do
Do, do, do, [C] do
Let your heart [Dm] decide
What you have to [F] do
That's all there is to [Bb] find
_ _ _ [C] _
Cause it [D] takes a fool to remain [F]
sane
Oh, it [Bb] takes a fool to remain _ [C]
sane
Oh, in [D] this world all covered up in [F]
shame
Oh, it [Bb] takes a fool to remain [C] sane
Oh, it [D] takes a fool to remain _ [F]
sane
Oh, it [Bb] takes a fool to remain [C] sane
Oh, in [D] this world all covered up in [F]
shame
Oh, it [Bb] takes a fool
