[Verse 1]
           Am7  D7          G
Some early morn,  a fool is born
Bm   E7      Am7  D7              G7
   A fool is born,  for aren't we all
C                    C7          G    G7
 And he believes his spoon is of gold
C                      C7         G        G7
 And he believes he'll never grow tired or old
Am7              Am                  G Em7 A7
   What a lovely world is before his eyes

[Chorus]
              D7
But little by little
  D          G
A fool grows wise

[Verse 2]
             Am7 D7             G
As time goes by,   he learns to cry
Bm   E7        Am7 D7             G7
  He learns to cry,  for don't we all
C                       C7            G    G7
 One day his dreams get caught in the rain
C                        C7         G         G7
 One day he's taught the meaning of tears and pain
Am7                   Am                  G Em7 A7
   Soon he learns the loveliest lips tell lies

[Chorus]
              D7
And little by little
  D          G
A fool grows wise

[Bridge]
B           C#m             F#7             B
 Suppose he laughs at dreams   and skies of blue
             C#m          F#7                B7
And captures all the world   fools sometimes do
Em                              F#7       Bm
  What good's the world that he calls his own
                B7          E7    Am     D
What good's the world if he walks alone

[Verse 3]
G              Am7    D7            G
 That's how he learns,  for what he yearns
Bm   E7         Am7  D7             G
  He yearns for love,  for don't we all
C                  C7        G     G7
 But love is not a frivolous waltz
C                      C7             G       G7
 And when he learns to love love with all its faults
Am7                  Am               G Em7 A7
   Then he knows the meaning of compromise

[Outro]
             D7
So little by little
  D          G
A fool grows wise
