This is one of my oldest songs, but I've never been happy with the recordings, I must have tried 6 different arrangements. Lately I've been having fun borrowing elements from other bands, and it occurred to me that this song has dynamics similar to material by Boston. So I researched and studied the production techniques Tom Scholz used on More Than a Feeling, and borrowed a few of them in this arrangement.

FOOL IN LOVE

GCD
GDCD No one sees inside me, and the don't know how I feel 21
GBmAmD They only glimpse the loneliness that I cannot reveal
GCBmAm When I think about you, I almost hear you call
GCDG and I was wondering if you ever think of me at all

DG BmCAmG I'm a fool, such a fool in love with you 39
DG BmEmCAm I am lost in love, and I don't know what to do
DG BmCD I get nervous when I see you, my composure slips away
GBmCD I forget all of my speeches, and I don't now what to say

BmCAm But I'm tired of fooling around 56
BmCAm so tired of playing the clown
DGCD and I want to see what the power of love can do
GCDG CDG I'm a fool, such a fool in love with you

DG BmCAmG 72
SOLO DG BmEmCAm

GCD GCD Gstop
GCD (4) 89

GDCD When my life is through and I travel on my way 97
GBmAmD with everything behind me, I hope that I can say
GCBmAm I took the chances and hung them on the wall
GCDG and if you love me I can tell the world I had it all

DG BmCAmG I'm a fool, such a fool in love with you 115
DG BmEmCAm I am lost in love, and I don't know what to do
DG BmCD It's because you're something special and frightening to me
GBmCD and I could talk to anybody else more easily

BmCAm But I'm tired of fooling around 135
