Gene Clark        Life's Greatest Fool         written by Gene Clark 

G             D            C           Am

Some walk out winners  of those who've lost
G         D           C                
Can it be said at any price this is the cost
G       D           C         Am   
Hard is perception easier is blame
G                 D        C     D             G   
Is this the only life  for everyone  is it the same 
G        D     C       Am

Children laugh and run away
G            D              C

While others look into the darkness of the day
G                 D    C             Am

Some streets are easy while some are cruel
G              D           C      D               G

Could these be reasons why man is life's greatest fool
D                    A

Do you believe when you're all alone
C                        G

You held the key to your destiny gone
D              A                                                     
Do you believe deep in your soul 
C                       G              A     D

That too much lonliness makes you grow old 

SOLO

G            D      C                 Am

Words can be empty though filled with sound 
G               D        C                 
Stoned numb and drifting hard to be profound 
G              D         C         Am

Formed out of pleasure chiselled by pain 
G         D           C       D            G
Never the highest and not the last ones to gain  
D                    A

Do you believe when you're all alone
C                        G

You held the key to your destiny gone
D              A                                                     
Do you believe deep in your soul 
C                       G              A     D

That too much lonliness makes you grow old
