The Beatles - The Fool On The Hill

the fool on the hill – the beatles

D6
day after day
G/E
alone on a hill
D6
the man with the fool grin
G/E
is keeping perfectly still , but
Em A7
nobody wants to know him ,
D6 Bm
they can see that he’s just a fool
Em A7
and he never gives an answer .

chorus
Dm Dm/C
but the fool on the hill
A#
sees the sun going down and the
C
eyes in his head
Dsus2 Dm D6
see the world spinning round

D6 G/E
well on the way a head in a cloud ,
D6
the man of thousand voices
G/E
talking perfectly loud ,
Em A7
but nobody ever hears him ,
D6 Bm
or the sound he appears to make
Em A7
and he never seems to notice .

chorus
Dm Dm/C
but the fool on the hill
A#
sees the sun going down and the
C
eyes in his head
Dsus2 Dm D6
see the world spinning round
