Fools Gold by Ryan Adams

I was dumbfounded that this wasn't already on here ?!?

This song is bootleg from the outtakes on the Gold album. So tragic it never made onto the album... such a great song.  Like so many of his best songs, never to see the light of day.

I did it from ear, so suggestions are welcome. 

Standard Tuning/Capo 1st fret

Intro:
Bm       A      G x5

Bm


Bm A GShe wore a dress that Mara Lisa had sewn
Bm A G And everybody just laughed
Bm A GThe boys were suited up on Mexican rose
Bm A GThey spilled their wine on their pants
Bm A GA distant cousin of her brother had come
Bm A GHe tore the sheets from her bed
Bm A GShe felt the poison of the barreling sun
Bm A GShe felt the weight of his hands
Bm D A GFool's gold can buy you anything you want
Bm A G Quick AFool's gold, fool's gold
Bm A G x2
Bm A G Her sister Hattie had a ship
Bm A GBut it had no sail
Bm A GHer husband hit her and he split her lip
Bm A G He said he'd kill her if he thought she would tell
Bm A G The streets were empty on the 4th of July
Bm A GThe fires burned in the sticks
Bm A GThe bells were ringing from the church of the saints
AMade of Mexican brick
Bm D A G Fool's gold can buy you anything you want
Bm A G Fool's gold, fool's gold
Bm Fools Gold
Bm A G x4 (over solo)
Bm A GThey watched her walk in from the roof of their house
Bm A GShe had a gun in her purse
Bm A GMara Lisa could have left on a train
Bm A GShe wasn't sure which was worse
Bm A GHer brother Daniel knew a guy in the stretch
Bm A GHe had some horses and a grudge
Bm A GThe other option was a Mexican jail
AAnd a crooked judge
Bm D A G Fool's gold can buy you anything you want
Bm A G Quick AFool's gold, fool's gold
Bm D A G Fool's gold can buy you anything you want
Bm A G Fool's gold, fool's gold
Bm Fools Gold
Bm A G x4 (over solo)
Bm A G They cast a shadow on the dusted remains
Bm A GThe broken bottles cut the earth
Bm A G She saw a rifle sticking out of the brush
Bm A GShe grabbed the gun from her purse
Bm A G Mara Lisa threw the sacks in the car
Bm A G The bullets cut into the breeze
Bm A G Fool's gold can buy you Mexican jewels
ABut it can't buy the police
Bm D A G Fool's gold can buy you anything you want
Bm A G Quick AFool's gold, fool's gold
Bm D A G Fool's gold can buy you anything you want
Bm A G Fool's gold, fool's gold
Bm Fools Gold
Outro: Bm A G (fade out over solo)
