Glen Hansard – Fools Game chords

[Verse 1]
       CIt's a fool's, fool's game
               FLover, that we have to play
            AmCrashing into each other
         GNo convalescing

      CIt' a leap of faith
               FLover, that we blindly take
                 AmI'm taking it with you and no other
        GNo hesitating


[Chorus 1]
           FAnd if our minds they go
        AmAnd our bones they shatter
             GWe'll put it on nobody
       F   AmBut ourselves


[Verse 2]
        CIt's an old refrain
               FLover, that we hear again
          AmUrging a cautious measure
             GSounding a warning

        CIt's a thin escape
               FLover, that we hope to make
                     AmWhen we're beaten, broken and battered
           GBeyond consoling


[Chorus 2]
        FAnd the breezes blow
            AmAnd to the winds we're scattered
                   GAnd we're fending for nobody
       F   AmBut ourselves

[Verse 3]
       CIt's a fool's, fool's game
                          FWhen you've nothing but a heart to break
                 AmBetter keep on breaking it, lover
         GUntil it opens

        CIt's a speeding train
                    FBeating through the pouring rain
                 AmWith no way to slow or stop it
                     GAnd the tracks are broken


[Chorus 3]
       FLike a rising wave
              AmThrough the storms we gather
                  GAnd we're falling on nobody
       F   AmBut ourselves
