What A Fool Believes by The Doobie Brothers
Capo I
Intro G Am Em Am
He came from somewhere back in her long ago.
The sentimental fool don't see
Tryin' hard to recreate what had yet to be created
once in her life she musters a smile
For his nostalgic tale Never coming near what he wanted to say
Only to realize It never really was...
She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
Am (hold)
As she rises to her apology
G(hold) Am
Anybody else would surely know
He's watching her go
But what a fool believes he sees
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing
And nothing at all keeps sending him...
Somewhere back in her long ago
Where he can still believe there's a place in her life
Someday, somewhere, she will return...
She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
Am (hold)
As she rises to her apology
G (hold) Am
Anybody else would surely know
He's watching her go
But what a fool believes he sees
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing
And nothing at all
But what a fool believes he sees
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing
And nothing at all (repeat to fade)

Keep the strumming simple. Plain old 8th notes. This version omits all the the walking
bass lines and gets to the straight chords. Any corrections/comments are welcome.
