Capo 1
[Intro]
A Amaj7 D E
[Verse]
A Amaj7 D E
Nickels and dimes, memories and wines; She's on his mind once again
A Amaj7 D E
The same old stool, the same old fool; played by the rules, but didn't win
Bm E
There's an old love in his heart that he can't lose
Bm E
He tried forgettin' but he knows that it's no use
[Chorus]
A Amaj7 D
He's got a fool hearted memory
Bm E
It won't let him see that she walked out the door
A Amaj7 D
He's got a fool hearted memory
Dm Bm E A
And he sits patiently here every night so it can fool him more
[Interlude]
A Amaj7 D E
[Verse]
A Amaj7 D E
She was his girl, his only whirl; that string of pearls that slipped away
A Amaj7 D E
A thousand dimes, a thousand times; he doesn't mind what they say
Bm E
He fills the jukebox, and plays the same old song
Bm E
He fills his glass, and then he turns her memory on
[Chorus]
A Amaj7 D
He's got a fool hearted memory
Bm E
It won't let him see that she walked out the door
A Amaj7 D
He's got a fool hearted memory
Dm Bm E A
And he sits patiently here every night so it can fool him more
A Amaj7 D
He's got a fool hearted memory
Bm E
It won't let him see that she walked out the door
A Amaj7 D
He's got a fool hearted memory
Dm Bm E A
And he sits patiently here every night so it can fool him more
