Mark Davis - Fool For Her
Album: Mistakes I Meant to Make
Note: Simple travis picking with a pinch on the one. On the F chord leave the first string open 133210, I
use my thumb for the F on the sixth string, this allows the open E to be played in the melody during the
F chord. The G to F and F to G transitions in the chorus are simple bass walkdowns
playing G F# F and F F# G respectively. Enjoy! And buy Marks albums!
[Verse]
C C
I Fell for her one winter's day, the cold hung heavy from a sky so gray
F C
Pretty face, pretty little face
C C
I was a fool for her down a thousand days, Showed her soul in a thousand ways
F C
Set the house ablaze, The whole house a blaze
[Chorus]
G
She said when you leave me it will break my mind
F
My hearts in your hands so try to be kind
G
Win or lose you are more than I'm buying
F
Loving man
C
my one design
[Verse]
C C
I fell for her some summer's night, the heat hung heavy from a sky so bright
F C
What a pretty sight, what a pretty little sight
C C
I was a fool for her through a thousand nights, told her soul near a thousand times
F C
Her eyes did shine, how her eyes did shine
[Chorus]
G
She gave no warning, she showed no sign
F
Truth be told like a little surprise
G
She says she's gone for good this time
F
Bright bouquets and gentle ways will let him
C
change your mind
[Interlude]
C C F C
[Verse]
C C
I fell for her just the other day, I searched for all the words to say
F C
She wouldn't stay, couldn't make her stay
C C
I was a fool for her just the other night, smiled just a little as she walked by
F C
Just a little smile, such a pretty little smile
