  			Intro: 
 D                          G  C G 
(Seen through the eyes of a fool.) 

#1. 
D        G                       D 
If I see someone hold her tight, that's all right,  

they're just dancing. 
D 
If they're together in the moonlight, they're just  
G 
talking, not romancing. 
G                                        A 
If I see her out with someone, it's just some old  

friend from school. 


Gb     D            Am7     D        Am7  G 
That's how it looks through the eyes of a fool. 

#2. 
G                                                 D 
If her phone rings and she whispers, I can't talk now..  

I don't care. 
D                           Am7           G 
A personal matter and she'd rather not discuss it with  

me there. 
G                                         A 
If I see her smile at someone, that's not breaking any  

rule. 

 
Dbm    D                             G  C G 
That's how it looks through the eyes of a fool. 

Bridge: 
     C                               G 
They say that seeing is believing, believe me it's  

not true. 
        A                               D 
You can teach your eyes to only see the things you want  

them to. 
        G                              A 
So, I'd rather keep pretending, like a little child in  

school. 
    Bm        D                             G 
And I'll keep looking through the eyes of a fool. 

OUTRO: 
Em7       G    D                             G   C G 
Yes, I'll keep looking through the eyes of a fool.
