A7 D               Fdim 
I tell myself I'm through with love 
      D          F#7           B7 
That I'll have nothing more to do with love 
G       Edim     D      B7 
I stay away, but every day 
G   G/F#  Em7   G/B   A7 
I'm just foolin' myself 
A7 D              Fdim 
I tell myself that I don't care 
    D        F#7            Gdim     B7 
I shrug my shoulders at the whole affair 
    G       Edim     D     B7 
But they all know it isn't so 
Em7      A7/13        D 
I'm just foolin' myself 
   Edim    B7 Gdim  B7 
And ev'ry time I   pass  
   Cdim      Em         B7       Em 
And see his face in the looking glass 
  B7     Em  Cdim E7       A7    Cdim      A7 
I tip my hat and  say 'How do you do, you fool 
G/B     A            G/B  Cdim  A7 
You're throwing your life  away' 
A7   D              Fdim 
I'm acting gay, I'm acting proud 
    D      F#7           B7 
And every time I see you in a crowd 
G      Edim      D       B7 
I just want to shout out loud 
Em7      A7/13        D 
I'm just foolin' myself
