C               F
Day after day alone on a hill
     C                                    F
The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly
still,
    Dm               G7
But nobody wants to know him,
          C                    Am
They can see that he's just a fool
    Dm                G7
And he never gives an answer.

Chorus:
Dm7       Cm A       Cm            A
But the fool on the hill sees the sun going down
         B
And the eyes in his head see
     Cm                  C Am C
The world spinning 'round.

Well on the way, head in a cloud,
The man of a thousand voices talking perfectly loud
But nobody ever hears him,
Or the sound he appears to make
And he never seems to notice.

Chorus
And nobody seems to like him,
They can tell what he wants to do
And he never shows his feelings.

Chorus

He never listens to them,
He knows that they're the fools.
They don't like him.

Chorus
