Another great song by George Strait that I didnt see on this site. Great song for the acoustic.
Artist: George Strait
Song title: Fool Hearted Memory
CAPO 1
A Amaj7 D E
Nickels and dimes, memories and wines - she's on his mind once again.
A Amaj7 D E
The same old stool, the same old fool; played by the rules, but didn't win.
Bm E
There's an old love in his heart that he can't lose.
Bm E
He tried forgettin', but he knows that it's no use.
[Chorus:]
A Amaj7 D
He's got a fool hearted memory.
Bm E
It won't let him see that she walked out the door.
A Amaj7 D
He's got a fool hearted memory,
Dm Bm E A
And he sits patiently here every night so it can fool him more.
A Amaj7 D E
She was his girl, his only whirl, that string of pearls that slipped away.
A Amaj7 D E
A thousand dimes, a thousand times - he doesn't mind what they say.
Bm E
He fills the jukebox, and plays the same old song.
Bm E
He fills his glass, and then he turns her memory on.
[Chorus:]
A Amaj7 D
He's got a fool hearted memory.
Bm E
It won't let him see that she walked out the door.
A Amaj7 D
He's got a fool hearted memory,
Dm Bm E A
And he sits patiently here every night so it can fool him more.
A Amaj7 D
He's got a fool hearted memory.
Bm E
It won't let him see that she walked out the door.
A Amaj7 D
He's got a fool hearted memory,
Dm Bm E A
And he sits patiently here every night so it can fool him more.
