[Intro 1]
[G][Dm][F][Dm][G][C][F]
[C]

[Verse 1]
[G]The smartest [C]fool
is the one [G]who looks the [C]other [F]way[C]
[G]When he see[C]s something he kno[F]ws
would [G]make him [C]cry
The [Bb]smartest [C]fool [F]is the one
[G]who closes [Em]up his ea[A]rs
When he [Dm]hears something he [D]knows
would mean good[Dm]bye
[G]The smartest foo[C]l tries to pretend
[G]that everything [C]is [F]fin[C]e
[G]An d that she [C]didn't hear him [F]say
that [G]he would [C]call
The [Dm]smartest [C]foo[F]l waits
while the phone rings [G]on
That [Em]empty, empty [A]life
And that's [Dm]why I'm the smartest [G]fool
of [C]all[F]
[C]The sma[Dm]rtest foo[G]l of [C]Darling,
you know they told me a hundred times
What [G]a fool I am for trying
to make you stay
[C]When I know that [F]deep down inside
that you [C]really don't care
But [G]honey, though it's true
that [C]I'm a fool to try and keep you
When I know that you don't love me
[F]If I admit that you're doing me wrong
[G]And let you [C]leave me
Then I'm just a fool alone
[Bb]The sun [C]is t[F]oo late
While the phone [G]rings on
that [Em]empty, [C]empty lin[A]e
And that's [Dm]why I'm the
smartest [Abdim]fool
[C]Of all
[F]What's [Em]yours?[Dm]
What's [C]blue?
