"Company Of Fools"(Doyle/Russell Crowe)
From "Fortune's Favour"(2008)

G D
Bring on the Clowns
G D
The Jokers and Buffoons
G
I’ve had the Time of my Life
D
And the Life of my Time
A D
In the Company of Fools

D
Many a truest word
G D
has been spoken by the Jester
G D
Standing against the tide
A
Is the noblest of gestures
D
little pearls of wisdom
G Bm
That tumble from the light
G D
Can make us laugh until we cry
A D
Because we know that they are right
A
Within the strangest people
D
Truth can find the strangest home
E
So meet me in the village
A
Where all we idiots go (go!)

CHORUS, followed by:

D G Bm G
Na na natineutinee, na na natineutinee
D G Bm A D
na na natineutinee, natineutnee na (ho!)


I’m wading through the quicksand
In the gardens of the gentry
Blooming vacuity
Leaves mind and pockets empty
Now,In the Social Order
I accept the bottom rung
until the wine is pouring
And the Lord commands a song

So,Meet me at the staff door
When the posers all go home
We’ll gather with the other Fools
And put on a proper show (show!)

CHORUS X2, "na na...", then Bridge:

A
So here’s to the Poorest Poet
D
Who always pens the truth
G D
an' the Players Writers,Gypsies an'
A D
The Minstrels and their tunes
A
I’d rather live an honest lifetime
D
With those with nothing to lose
G D
Than waste a night
G D
Knee deep in shite
G D
That’s polished slick
G D
To look just right
D A
I’d rather live a lifetime
A D
In the Company of Fools

BREAK: |D GF#|G A|X4

Within the strangest people
Truth can find the strangest home
So meet me in the village
where all we idiots go
(all we idiots,all we idiots go)

CHORUS (Acapella)

"Na Na..."

Break Chords (double time)
to fade, with ad lib.
