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

I wonder where you are
A# Dm
Would you forgive me
C
If I apologise now?

I, I, I, I, I
C
Painted you in gold
A# Dm
Remind me
C
How we lost it all
[Chorus]

Are we chasing it still?

Painted you in gold

A# Dm F Am
[Bridge]
Dm F
Thought we knew love like a love song
Am
Just cause we learned all the words
A# Dm F
But you don't realise until the love's gone
Am A#
Singing it all wrong
Dm F
Yeah, heartache to heartache, we fight on
Am
Promises blinding the truth
A# Dm
But the truth is it was useless
F
You and me were just fool's gold
