F#m B E A Can't you show me something I've not seen before F#m B E A Magic tricks and pirate ships - they just don't work no more. F#m B E A Given up on treasure chests that wash upon the shore F#m B 'Cause fool's gold never seems to keep its shine. Hey, can't you give me something I can hold in my hands I'm sick of gold rush promises and empty suitcase plans I won't go back to treasure maps and digging in the sand For I always seem to lose whatever I find Yeah, I always seem to leave it all behind Chorus: F#m B E A Give me golden afternoons in May F#m B C#m A Give me silver moons that light my way F#m B And I won't ask for fool's gold anymore Hey, can't you make me feel like I haven't felt for years Let me laugh like I did when I was a kid 'til I burst into tears Let me count the diamond stars and drink the water crystal clear And I'll be richer than any man that lives with fear Chorus: Singing hey, give me golden afternoons in May Give me silver moons that light my way And I won't ask for fools gold anymore F#m B C#m A I won't ask for fool's gold anymore. F#m B E I won't ask for fool's gold anymore.
