[Verse 1]
[A]Sometimes, a man and a woman
Spends 30 or 40 years together
And they don't belong together
Then one day, one of 'em tries to leave
And does, but in a most
peculiar [D]way
[A]Woman, one of these days I'm

[Verse 2]
[G]
[D](leaving)
Leaving you far be[A]hind
And on that day you'll
[G]be [D](grieving)
Grieve on, woman, I [A]don't mind
Look out in [G]the back
[D]yard (mama)
'Cause I'm leaving you real [A]soon
Gonna fly me up [G]to [D](heaven)
In my big red bal[A]loon

[Verse 3]
[A]
You're nothing but an old [G]fool[D]
And that's all you'll ever [A]be
You're nothing but [G]an old [D]fool
You know you'll never leave [A]me
So stop your silly [G]playing[D]
It's time you settled [A]down
And hear me when I'm [G]saying
You'll [D]never get that damn
thing off the [A]ground

[Verse 4]
[A]
Old woman are [G]ya'[D]
(looking)
'Cause I'm almost ten feet [A]high,
high, high
Woman, stop [G]your [D](cooking)
'Cause I'll never eat that [A]pie
I'm on my way [G]to [D](heaven)
Might even touch the [A]moon
Wave me goodbye, I'm [G](leaving)
[D]In my big red bal[A]loon

[Verse 5]
You're nothing but an [G]old [D]fool
And that's all you'll
ever [A]be
You're nothing but an old [G]fool[D]
You know you'll never leave [A]me
So stop your silly [G]playing[D]
It's time you settled [A]down
You better hear me when [G]I'm saying
You'll [D]never get that damn
thing off the [A]ground

[Verse 6]
[A]
You never gave [G]me [D](loving)
You never were [A]the kind
You never gave me [G](children)
[D]You never had the [A]time
Remember me [G]to [D](no one)
I was born this [A]afternoon
I got it all [G](together)
[D]In my big red bal[A]loon

[Verse 7]
[A]
You're nothing but an old [G]fool[D]
And that's all you'll ever [A]be
Now, you're nothing but an old [G]fool[D]
You know you'll never leave [A]me
So come on and stop this silly [G]playing[D]
It's time you settled [A]down
And hear me when I'm [G]saying
You'll [D]never get that damn thing
off the ground
[A]

[Verse 8]
You'll never get that damn
thing off the ground
I said you won't get that thing
off the ground
Get that, what are you doing up there?
Bring that damn thing back down here
Listen, you hear me
Get back down here boy
