[Verse]
Em G6 Am G6
Fools fall in love, Wise men they fall too,
Em B7
Wise men hit the bottle, Lord, fools just fall on thru,
Em G6 Am G6
They fill out empty spaces, Like fingers fill a glove,
Em B7 Em
I must be a fool, Because fools fall in love.
Em G6 Am G6
Fools fall in love, Beneath the neon lights,
Em B7
Fools fall in love, On a long hot summer night,
Em G6 Am G6
They feel no hesitation, They seldom need a shove,
Em B7 Em
They just start out leaning over, And then fools fall in love.

Em G6 Am G6
Fools fall in love, It's so easy to deceive,
Em B7
Fools fall in love, On a long cold winter's eve,
Em G6 Am G6
Clouds in the sky, Snowflakes up above,
Em B7 Em
The logs are on the fire, That's when fools fall in love.
Em G6 Am G6
Fools fall in love, Like ashes in that fire,
Em B7
Fools fall to pieces, And the flames keep jumping higher,
Em G6 Am G6
On and on, more and more, They never have enough,
Em B7 Em
I must be a fool, Because fools fall in love.

Fools fall in love, They just can't resist,
Em B7
Fools fall in love, They don't even have to kiss,
Em G6 Am G6
They breath and sigh, sound like, A lonesome mourning dove,
Em B7 Em
I must be a fool, Because fools fall in love.
