I Was A Fool
Recorded by Roy Orbison

C                            G7
I don’t lose my blues when I pretend you’re with me
                                C
Though I make believe I’m still alone
                             G7
When I think of you my empty arms remind me 
     F           G7       C
That my one true love has gone 

F                                    C
I was a fool that’s why I cried over you
F            G7            C
I was a fool I only wanted you 

                         G7
When I smile so gay everybody knows 
                                             C
That I’ve lost my love but that’s the way it goes
                             G7
When I think of you my empty arms remind me 
     F           G7       C
That my one true love has gone
