[Verse 1]
B D#m
Crawled up beside you
C#
And I was yours to hold

Still learning how to
C#
But I was yours to love

Painted you in gold

When I, I, I, I, I

Held you high above it all
[Chorus]

Are we chasing it still?
C#
Will we ever have it like we had it?
Fool's love

When we thought it was real, did we really have it?
Or was it only fool's gold?

Painted you in gold

Will I ever find it like we had it?

Thought we knew love like a love song

Just cause we learned all the words

But the truth is it was useless

You and me were just fool's gold
