Matthew Ryan: Beautiful Fool,from the Album May Day
[Intro] Em C G D Em C G D
G C
August the 24, 1991
Em
You're calling for me from the bedroom window
D
I'm working on the lawn
Em
Under a northeastern sky
C
Hollow and gray
G
You said,
"Everything's different now."
D C Em G D
I said, "Oh really, I don't' think nothing's changed."
G
Telephone rings
C
It's the middle of the night
Em D
"You're awfully quiet babe are you still alive?"
Em
And every star
C
Looks down and grieves
G
You turn and you open up wide
D C Em G D
And then you retreat
Em
Pale blue sky
C
Colder than hell
G
If you're looking for me to make you feel
D
Well I'm looking for that myself
Em
And a strong foundation
C
That no heartache could shift
G D
The grace of God and for all this frustration to finally life
C
My beautiful fool
Em
My beautiful fool
G
Didn't you know
D C EM G D C Em G D C
I'm a fool too
