Intro
G Am C C7 G x2
Verse 1
G
Well, a truest test of a man's good name
Am
is acceptance of failure and losing a game,
C C7 G
with a smile and a handshake, quiet every building rage
Verse 2
G
I got knocked around in a real small town,
Am
and they poked and and they prodded and marched me around,
C C7 G
for a laugh at the snow, try to tear a good man's soul
Chorus
G
For a fool's gold, a beggar's bargain
Am
too much time, space to get lost in,
C D G
it's one for the road, two if you can let it go.
G
Blood's thick, but water's deeper,
Am
the wine works fine, but the whiskey's cheaper
C D G
Now turn it around, quick before the sun goes down.
Verse 3
G
Well, I see you found yourself a damn fine game,
Am
you can lines on your mind and ounces to say,
C C7 G
but it's okay, we've both seen our darker days.
Verse 4
G
It's like you've never saw a sucker before,
Am
been alive on the side of your bedroom door,
C C7 G
with an ear on the phone, beggin' just to let it go.

G
For a fool's gold, a beggar's bargain
