Now all that remains is a born-again fool

Mistakes, he's made many in his passage of life
C F G C
But she was the first wrong he couldn't make right

She left him no reason, she left no excuse
C F G C
All she left was the shell of a born-again fool
CHORUS:
F C
Believing that her love would be his salvation

Another false idol, another heart torn in two

Oh, there's no one as lost as a born-again fool

C F G C
She was only creating a born-again fool
CHORUS:

Another false idol, another heart torn in two

Oh, there's no one as lost as a born-again fool______

He sits on a park bench still wondering why
C F G C
As the whole world, unnoticing, passes him by
F C G
Such a forlorn conclusion that his life led him to
C F G C
Betrayed and deceived, he's a born-again fool
