NOTE: this is, basically, a piano tune transcribed for acoustic guitar.

NOTE: a tab already available on the web, done by Wilson Miner

the tab provided here differs in the following respects:

1) the guitar is tuned up; (low E and A strings tuned up 1/2 step

2) the variation on the 'C' chord during the intro is different;

3) the chord progression during the chorus is different,

and has been tabbed in full.

song: Foolish Games

artist: Jewel Kilcher

from: the CD 'Pieces of You', track 4.

guitar. vocal.

[intro.]

[v.line] You took your coat off and stood in the rain,

You were always crazy like that

[v.line] I watched from my window,

Always felt I was outside looking in on you

[v.line] You were always the mysterious one with dark eyes and careless

hair... You were fashionably sensitive, but too cool to care.

[v.line] You stood in my doorway, with nothing to say...

besides some comment on the weather

[v.line] Well in case you failed to notice; in case you failed to see..

This is my heart bleeding before you; this is me down on my knees

[c.line] These foolish games are tearing me apart

[c.line] Your thoughtless words are breaking my heart

You're breaking my heart

[intro.]

[v.line] You were always brilliant in the morning

Smoking your cigarettes, talking over coffee...

[v.line] Your philosophies on art, Baroque moved you, You loved Mozart

you'd speak of your loved ones As I clumsily strummed my guitar

[v.line] You'd teach me of honest things...

Things that were daring, things that were clean...

Things that knew what an honest dollar did mean

[v.line] So I hid my soiled hands behind my back,

Somewhere along the line I must've gone off track with you

[v.line] Excuse me, think I've mistaken you for somebody else

Somebody who gave a damn, Somebody more like myself

[c.line] These foolish games are tearing me apart

[c.line] Your thoughtless words are breaking my heart

You're breaking my heart

[intro.]

[Dm x 4]

[v.line] You took off your coat and stood in the rain

You were always like that

[repeat intro and fade...]

Tab: (note the guitar tuning... tune 5th and 6th strings up 1/2 step to

Bb and F respectively. This makes it considerably easier to play.)

It's a fun one once you have it - vary the picking during

the verses and/or chorus to give more feel to things.
