     A        E          A 
Well I made a mess of my life, 
                 E                    A 
Each time I went left, I shoulda gone right. 
    D                           A    F#m 
And love's no exception to this rule, 
     B7                         E 
'Cos I turned around and I lost you. 
 
 
 
    A           E            A 
Now I'm feelin' lonesome and blue, 
         E         A    
Just the way I'd expect to. 
                 D                    
But there's some things that I could use 
           A               F#m 
To help me deal with this abuse; 
   A      
If french fries were fat free, 
E              A 
 And you still loved me. 
 
 
 
   D 
If french fries were fat free, 
 
And you still loved me, 
      A 
What a wonderful world this would be. 
       D 
If the whisky really helped me, 
 
Forget your memory, 
A                        E 
 I'd wear a smile endlessly. 
   D                 A 
If french fries were fat free, 
E              A     
 And you still loved me.

             A             E 
You know the more I think about it, 
         A 
The more sense it makes. 
                E               A 
'Cos grease and love both cause heartache. 
     D        
So I raise my glass in toast, 
      A                 F#m 
These things I want the most. 
            B7 
Though I'll probably never see it, 
  E 
I can't help but believe in that; 
 
 
 
 
   D 
If french fries were fat free, 
 
And you still loved me, 
      A 
What a wonderful world this would be. 
       D

Forget your memory, 
A                        E 
 I'd wear a smile endlessly. 
   D                 A 
If french fries were fat free, 
E              A     
 And you still loved me. 
       D                 A 
Oh, if french fries were fat free, 
E              A  
 And you still loved me.
