       A                                        D                            F#m 
Well I waited and I waited up at day and night, thinkin' that my phone would ring 
    A                                       B7                          E 
But you never gave me a second thought, and told all your friends about me 
        A                                                 D                    F#m 
Yes you told 'em all about what a clown I was and how you had me on the end of string 
    A                    F#m                            B7          E   A 
Now I've got a title for which I'm known and that's the fool of the century 
 
         C# 
Well you seem so close but just out of reach 
           F#m 
I'm always chasin' somethin' down the road 
         B7                                            E 
And it's way too late, I should've learned my lesson a long long time ago 
           A 
But now no matter where I wonder all over town 
D                           F#m 
I can hear them laughin' at me 
    A                     F#m                      B7          E   A 
Yes they all whisper when I walk by there goes the fool of the century
 
 
 
 
SOLO (CHORUS chords) 
 
 
Well I tried my best to look I fit in with your first class company 
But they all looked at in disbelief and wouldn't take me seriously 
Well now I followed you around for a long long time practically down on my knees 
Then they all sent me to the head of the class as the fool of the century 
 
 
CHORUS 
 
        B7          E   A 
Yes the fool of the century 
F#m      B7          E   A    E  A 
Mmmm the fool of the century
