Ween – You Were The Fool chords
Chords:
Ween - You Were the Fool From the amazing album 12 Golden Country Greats The song's signature is the little hammer-ons he hits when playing the E chord. As he strums the E, he does 0h2 hammer-ons on the A, D, and G strings. Listen to the song to hear it. When solo, Gene sometimes puts a capo on the second fret, but with Ween I'm pretty sure he didn't use the capo. I think it sounds better with the capo on 2, but that may just be because I have more trouble hitting the hammer-ons with no capo. Also, the E is the only chord he plays open, all the others are barre chords. I have simplified those barre chords; there's probably some 7th stuff happening that I'm not smart enough to figure out. And don't miss the surprise C chord near the end. *******************************EBless the father bless the sonECross your heart 'cause you're the oneA ECollecting moonbeams in the morning(E)ECurvy sticks and wooden polesEAssisting you in plugging holesA EPlug them holes till you see straight through to the mind's eye(E) __Chorus__DThink about it turn aroundAAnd go back to the quiet soundC DOf Jim and Dan prancing 'round the poolE A EYou were the fool, and I feel sorry for youE D AYou were the fool, but there's something you can do(E) __Verse__EYou can wash your arm in a pool of mudEYou can chop a tree, prevent a floodA EYou can speak with a turtle just by flipping him around(E)EYou can build a boat, and sail the seaEYou can buy a moat and forge a keyA EInitiate the sequence, create catastrophe(E) __Chorus__DThink about it turn aroundAAnd go back to the quiet soundC DOf Jim and Dan prancing 'round the poolE A EYou were the fool, and I feel sorry for youE D AYou were the fool, but there's something you can do(E) __Verse__EBless the father, bless the sonECross your heart 'cause you're the oneA ECollecting moonbeams in the morning(E)ECurvy sticks and wooden polesEAssisting you in plugging holesA EPlug them holes till you see straight through to the mind's eye(E) __Chorus__DThink about it turn aroundAAnd go back to the quiet soundC DOf Jim and Dan prancing round the poolE A EYou were the fool, and I feel sorry for youE D CYou were the fool, but there's something you can doEYou were the fool(E)...
