Verse 1:
[Em chordEm]You took your [C chordC]coat off and stood in the [G chordG]rain,
You were always [D chordD]crazy like that
[Em chordEm]I watched from my [C chordC]window,
always felt I was [G chordG]outside looking i[D chordD]n on you
You were a[Em chordEm]lways the mysterious one
with [C chordC]dark eyes and careless hair,
You were f[G chordG]ashionably sensitive, but too [D chordD]cool to care
Then you [Em chordEm]stood in my [C chordC]doorway, with nothing to [G chordG]say
besides some [D chordD]comment on the weather


BRIDGE:


Well in c[Am chordAm]ase you failed to notice,
In c[C chordC]ase you failed to see,
[G chordG]This is my heart bleeding before you,
[D chordD]This is me down on my knees


CHORUS:
[C chordC]These foolish g[D chordD]ames are [G chordG]tear[D chordD]ing me [C chordC]apart
[C chordC]You're thoughtless [D chordD]words are [G chordG]breaki[D chordD]ng my h[C chordC]eart
You're breaking [Em chordEm]my heart


Verse 2:
You were always [Em chordEm]brilliant in the [C chordC]morning
Smoking your [G chordG]cigarettes, [D chordD]talking over coffee
You philos[Em chordEm]ophies on art, Baroque mo[C chordC]ved you,
You loved Mozart and you'd s[G chordG]peak of your loved ones
As I c[D chordD]lumsily strummed my guitar
[Em chordEm]You'd teach me of honest things
[C chordC]Things that were daring, things that were clean
[G chordG]Things that knew what an honest do[D chordD]llar did mean
So I h[Em chordEm]id my soiled hands behind my [C chordC]back
[G chordG]Somewhere along the line I must've go[D chordD]ne off track with you


BRIDGE:
[Am chordAm]Excuse me, think I've mistaken you for [C chordC]somebody else
[G chordG]Somebody who gave a damn,
[D chordD]Somebody more like myself


REPEAT CHORUS.


[E chordE]You took your [C chordC]coat off and stood in the [G chordG]rain,
you were always crazy like t[D chordD]hat

About this song: Foolish Games

one of jewels earlier songs beatifuly written and sung by this rare artist the lyrics speak
of a tragic one sided love of which she is the loser .probably never to gain her lovers
respect or love very sad words to a very sad song
