I Was A Fool To Care (James Taylor) 1975 I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care I was a fool to care but I don't care even if I was a fool I'm still in love with you Had I listened to the grapevine, I might have had my doubts But I did my level best just to block them out "Cause love is so unwise and love has no eyes /c# /b /a} And it took a while for a fool to see what his friends were on about I was a fool to care I was a fool to care I was a fool to care but I don't care even if I was a fool I'm still in love with you Imagining your face, it almost fills the empty space before me I can see you eyes and almost hear your lovely lies I wish I was an old man and love was through with me I wish I was a baby on my mama's knee I wish I was a freight train moving down the line /c# /b /a} Just keeping track of time without all these memories I was a fool to care I was a fool to care I was a fool to care } but I don't care even if I was a fool I'm still in love with you Baby, yes, I am } I could have opened my eyes, I could have seen through your lies I could have stood for no more, I could have walked out the door But I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care But I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care You weren't nothing but a fool to care; just a country fool to care. {repeat and fade}
