Transposer:

FOOLISH YOU Kate and Anna McGarrigle (Witten by Wade Hemsworth) Tuning: Standard Capo: 2nd Fret Intro: Foolish you you want to go away Seeking fortune’s favour on your own While the one who stays beside you Foolish me    is left alone. Chorus: Sad and foolish that’s how I feel Don’t you know how fortune favours few? Fortune’s blind as blind as you my dear What a pity ah foolish you!   2nd TIME: Instrumental - same chords as verse Leaving me this way is hardly fair Must I go seek a fortune too Or must I wait till folly finds its own way Home to me and foolish you? Loving you was good love was kind I didn’t mind the payments overdue For the price of loving is none too dear As long as I’m with foolish you. (Slowly) Sad and foolish that’s how I feel When I see the foolish way you do Fortune fails when you are gone my dear (Normal Speed) But I still want more of foolish you I sti-ll wa-nt mo-re of foolish you.                   Notes: Play in 2/2 time For the intro follow the last two lines of the chorus This is how I play: The bridge after the first chorus 1 & 2 & 1 & 2 & 1 & 2 & 1 The outro 1 & 2 & 1 & 2 & 1 & 2 & 1 & 2

La chanson évoque la tristesse d'une personne laissée seule alors que son partenaire part à la recherche de succès et de richesse. Elle exprime un mélange de regret et d'affection, soulignant que l'amour vrai ne compte pas le prix. Malgré l'absence de l'autre, l'attachement persiste, même si la vie semble plus difficile sans lui. L'idée que certaines personnes poursuivent des illusions de fortune, ignorant la valeur de ceux qui restent à leurs côtés, est également centrale. C'est un rappel que l'amour, bien que parfois triste et complexe, est un trésor inestimable qui mérite d'être chéri.
