[Verse 1]
Em            A            D                    G
Can't you show me something I've not seen before
Em              A               D                     G    
Magic tricks and pirate ships - they just don't work no more.
Em         A                    D             G
Given up on treasure chests that wash upon the shore
Em                                          A
'Cause fool's gold never seems to keep its shine.

[Verse 2]
Em            A            D                G       G/F#
Can't you give me something I can hold in my hands
Em               A             D             G     G/F#
Sick of gold rush promises and empty suitcase plans
Em                         A         D                 G     G/F#
I won't go back to treasure maps and digging in the sand
Em                                    A
For I always seem to lose whatever I find
Em                                       A
Yeah, I always seem to leave it all behind


[Chorus 1]
D        G
Heeeeyyyy
Em            A          D            G
Give me golden afternoons in May        
Em         A                      Bm    G   G/F#
Give me silver moons that light my way
Em                   A           
And I won't ask for fool's gold anymore

[Verse 3]
Em           A              D                  G      G/F#
Can't you make me feel like I haven't felt for years
Em                           A            D                 G     G/F#
Let me laugh like I did when I was a kid until I burst into tears
Em                     A         D                      G     G/F#
And count the diamond stars and drink the water crystal clear
Em                                              A
And I'll be richer than any man who lives with fear


[Chorus 2]
D                   G      G/F#
Singing aaaaaay
Em      A                     D      G    G/F#
Give me golden afternoons in May
Em              A            Bm          G   G/F#
Give me silver moons that light my way
Em                  A           
I won't ask for fool's gold anymore.

Singing aaaaaay 
G      A                     D      G   G/F#
Give me golden afternoons in May
Em              A            Bm          G   G/F#
Give me silver moons that light my way
Em                  A           Bm     G   G/F#
I won't ask for fool's gold anymore.

[Outro]
Em                A            Bm          G   G/F#
I won't ask for fool's gold anymore.
Em                A                   D
I won't ask for fool's gold anymore.
