[Verse 1]
C Em
Crawled up beside you
D
And I was yours to hold
C Em
Still learning how to
D
But I was yours to love
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Bm C Em
I, I, I, I, I
D
Painted you in gold
C Em
When I, I, I, I, I
D
Held you high above it all
[Chorus]
C Em
Are we chasing it still?
D
Will we ever have it like we had it?
Fool's love
C Em D
When we thought it was real, did we really have it?
Or was it only fool's gold?
[Post-Chorus]

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I, I, I, I, I
C Em
Painted you in gold
D
Will I ever find it like we had it?
Fool's gold

Remind me

How we lost it all

[Bridge]
Em G
Thought we knew love like a love song
Bm
Just cause we learned all the words

But you don't realise until the love's gone

Promises blinding the truth

But the truth is it was useless

You and me were just fool's gold
