Foolish One (Taylor's Version)

G my cards are on the table yours are in your hand C chances are tonight you've already got plans Am and chances are C G i will talk myself to sleep again.. G you give me just enough attention to keep my hopes too high C wishful thoughts forget to mention when something's really not right Am and i will block out C G these voices of reason in my head.. D and the voices say, C G D "you are not the exception C D you will never learn your lesson" Reff : G foolish one stop checkin' your mailbox C for confessions of love that ain't never gonna come Am you will take the long way D you will take the long way down.. G you know how to keep me waiting i know how to act like i'm fine C don't know what to call this situation but i know i can't call you mine Am and it's delicate C G but i will do my best to seem bulletproof G cause when my head is on your shoulder it starts thinkin' you'll come around C and maybe someday when we're older this is something we'll laugh about Am C over coffee every morning G while you're watching the news.. D but then the voices say, C G D "you are not the exception C D you will never learn your lesson" Reff : G foolish one stop checkin' your mailbox C for confessions of love that ain't never gonna come Am you will take the long way D you will take the long way down.. G foolish one stop checkin' your mailbox C for confessions of love that ain't never gonna come Am you will learn the hard way D instead of just walking out.. Em now i'm sliding down the wall C with my head in my hands G D saying, "how could i not see the signs?".. Em oh, you haven't written me or called C but goodbye screaming in the silence G and the voices in my head D are telling me why.. G cause you got her on your arm and me in the wings C i'll get your longing glances but she'll get your ring Am and you will say C G you had the best of intentions.. Am C D and maybe i will finally learn my lesson Reff : G foolish one stop checkin' your mailbox C for confessions of love that ain't never gonna come Am you will take the long way D you will take the long way down.. G foolish one stop checkin' your mailbox C for confessions of love that ain't never gonna come Am you will learn the hard way D instead of just walking out.. ooh.. oh ooh.. G lalala lala lalala lala oh C lalala lala ain't never gonna come Am D uuh.. you will learn the hard way now.. G foolish one sitting 'round waiting for C confessions of love they ain't never gonna come Am and thinking he's the one D you should've been walking out.. G foolish one the day is gonna come for C your confessions of love when all is said and done Am he just wasn't the one D no, he just wasn't the one.. Outro : G
