CHORDS: Taylor Swift – Foolish One Chords on Piano & Ukulele

These are Foolish One chords by Taylor Swift on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

   G
My cards are on the table,
 yours are in your hands
C
Chances are tonight
 you've already got plans
    Am                 C
And chances are I will talk
                  G
 myself to sleep again
            G
You give me just enough attention
 to keep my hopes too high
        C
Wishful thoughts forget to mention
 when something's really not right
    Am                     C
And I will block out these voices
                 G    D
 of reason in my head

[Chorus]
And the voices say,
  C           G     D
"You are not the exception
C              D
You will never learn your
          G
 lesson, foolish one

Stop checking your mailbox for
    C
 confessions of love that
ain't never gonna come
Am
You will take the long way,
                            D
you will take the long way down"

[Verse 2]
         G
You know how to keep me waiting,
 I know how to act like I'm fine
                   C
Don't know what to call
this situation but I know
I can't call you mine
         Am
And it's delicate, but
       C                        G
I will do my best to seem bulletproof
               G
'Cause when my head is on
your shoulder it starts
thinking you'll come around
          C
And maybe someday when we're older
this is something we'll laugh about
     Am           C
Over coffee every morning
                           G
 while you're watching the news

[Chorus]
And the voices say,
  C           G     D
"You are not the exception
C              D
You will never learn your
          G
 lesson, foolish one

Stop checking your mailbox for
    C
 confessions of love that
ain't never gonna come
Am
You will take the long way,
                            D
you will take the long way down"
G
Foolish one

Stop checking your mailbox for
    C
 confessions of love that
 ain't never gonna come
Am
You will have to learn the hard
                        D
way instead of walking out"

[Verse 3]
        Em
Now I'm sliding down the wall
         C
 with my head in my hands
         G
Saying, "How could
               D
 I not see the signs?"
                Em
Oh, you haven't written
me or called
            C
But goodbye screaming
in the silence
        G
And the voices in my head
             D
are telling me why
       G
'Cause you got her on your
arm and me in the wings
     C
I'll get your longing glances
 but she'll get your ring
    Em               C
And you will say you had
               D
the best of intentions
    Em
And maybe I will finally
 C        D
 learn my lesson

G
Foolish one

Stop checking your mailbox for
     C
 confessions of love that
 ain't never gonna come
Am
You will take the long way,
                            D
 you will take the long way down
G
Foolish one

Stop checking your mailbox
        C
 for confessions of love that
 ain't never gonna come
Am
You will have to learn the
                             D
hard way instead of walking out"

[Outro]
G C

Ain't never gonna come
Am                              D
Ooh, you will learn the hard way now
G
Foolish one
Sitting 'round waiting for
    C
confessions of love,
they ain't never gonna come
    Am
And thinking he's the one,
                            D
you should've been walking out
G
Foolish one

The day is gonna come for your
    C
 confessions of love,
when all is said and done
   Am
He just wasn't the one, no,
     D                   G
 he just wasn't the one
