I Took Her For A Fool
By Cal Smith
 
G                                              D7
I'm setting in this honky tonk down to my last dime
                                                          G
I'll bet you've heard this tale of woe at least a million times
                                                       C
I'm the guy that used to own that big house across the tracks
                          G               D7             G
But the only thing that I own now are the cloths upon my back
 
  C
A different girl most every night I thought this was the life
                                    A7                    D7
I tried to please them all but that just didn't please my wife
  G                                                 C
I kicked myself a million times for treating her so bad
                 G                D7           G
I took her for a fool so she took me for all I had
 
                                            D7
I used to have a big garage two Cadillac's inside 
                                                  G
A pretty wife who loved just me but I wasn't satisfied  
                                                 C
The house the wife the car belong now to another man
                         G                       D7              G
Cause she caught me with another girl and that's when it hit the fan
 
Repeat # 2
