verse 1
Am C G D
The neon's burning both ends of another night
Am C G G
Everybody's living way too loud
Am C G D
Working hard to act like everything's alright
Am C D
Anything to keep from coming down.
 
[Refrão]Am C G D
Fool, you're fooling yourself
Am C D
Don't you know that closing time will tell
Am C G
If you think you're fooling anybody else
Am C G
Oh Fool, you're fooling self.
 
verse 2:
 
Telling anyone who'll listen that it won't be long
Any day now she'll come back to you
And you'll forgive her everything that she's done wrong
You figure it's the least that you can do
 
Chorus
 
verse 3:
 
There ain't no problem you can't solve with one more beer
But there's nothing you can do about last call
You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here
It's too bad you ain't got no place to fall.
 
Chorus 2X
 
Fool, you're fooling yourself
