C                                                    Am 
I know I shouldn't love you, from the way we said goodbye 
                     F                                        G 
And I know there are others with tears for you still in their eyes 
                          C                           Am 
But if I thought you were lonely I wouldn't waste any time 
           F     G       C 
I'd be the first fool in line 

C                                            Am-a 
Funny thing about a memory, when it comes to loveo|. 
                     F                               G 
It forgets about the bad times and remembers what it wants 
                           C                    Am 
So if you're looking for a heart, whose love is blind 
            F     G       C 
I'll be the first fool in line 

          Am     F             C 
I'll fall back into your arms again 
        Am          F               G 
Just as fast as the fool I was back then 
                     C                           Am 
I know I should know better I know the hurt I'll find 
                F     G       C 
But I'll be the first fool in line 

(Instrumental) 

          Am     F             C 
I'll fall back into your arms again 
        Am          F               G 
Just as fast as the fool I was back then 
                   C                                 Am 
So if ever you are lookin' for a heart whose love is blind 
            F     G       C 
I'll be the first fool in line 
            F     G       C    F  C 
I'll be the first fool in line
