Intro
G D A D
When [D]all your [A7]loves have [D]ended
When all your friends have[A7] flown
Who'll be around to want you
When all your loves have [D]gone
[D]Only a [A7]fool[D] would do it
[D]After the[D7] way you've[G] done
But how many fools would have[D] you
[A] I know[D] one[D7]
[G]This fool keeps wonderin' why
[A7]He fell in love at all
[G]But you might need this fool
[D]Around in case you [A7]fall
[D]After the [A7]party's [D]over
[D]And you've had your [D7]fill of
[G]fun
If you need a fool to forgive [D]you
[A]I know [D]one[D7]

[G]You never know, you might be lonely
[A7]When all your loves have missed
[G]It wouldn't hurt to keep an extra

[D]After your[A7] heart's been [D]broken
[D]And you need a[D7] place to [G]run
If you'll take a fool who [D]loves you
[A] I know[D] one[D7]
I know one
