"EVERYBODY PLAYS THE FOOL" by The Main Ingredient from the 1972 album "Bitter Sweet"
INTRO: F G
[C] [F] [C] [F]
VERSE 1:
Ok, [C]so you're heart broken[F]
You sit around [C]mopin', cryin', [F]cryin'
You [C]say you're even thinking about dying[F]
Well, before you do anything [C]rash, [F]dig this:
CHORUS:
[F]Every[G7]body plays the [C]fool, some[E7]time
[F]There's no ex[G7]ception to the [C]rule, [E7]listen baby
[F]It may be [G7]factual, it may be [C]cruel, [E7]I ain't lying
[F]Every[G7]body plays the [C]fool[F]
VERSE 2:
Fallin' in love is such an [C]easy thing to do[F]
But there's no guarantee that the [C]one you love, is gonna love [F]you
Oh, [Em]loving eyes they [Am]cannot see a [Em]certain person could [Am]never be
[Dm]Love runs deeper than any ocean, it [G7]clouds you're mind with emotion
CHORUS
How can you help it, when the [C]music starts to play[F]
And your ability to [C]reason, is swept a[F]way
Oh, [Em]heaven on earth is [Am]all you see, you're [Em]out of touch with r[Am]eality
And [Dm]now you cry, but when you do, [G7]next time around someone cries for you
CHORUS 2:
Everybody plays the fool, sometime
You use your heart just like a tool, listen baby
They never tell you so in school, I wanna say it again,
Everybody plays the fool
CHORUS
