THE FOOL ON THE HILL
By Lennon & McCartney
The Beatles
Key: D

-2*-2* -2* -2*-2* 3   -3 -4   -4
Day af-ter day a-lone on the hill,
-3  -3   -4   5*  -5   -5  -5
The man with the fool-ish grin 
-5  5*  -3  -4   6   6   6
is keep-ing per-fect-ly still,
-3  -4  6  6   6   -5  -6*  6
But no-bod-y wants to know him,
-4   -3  -4   -5   -5   -5 -4 -5-4-3
They can see that he's just a  fool,
-3  -4  6  -5    6  -5 6  -6*
And he nev-er gives an an-swer,
-5   5* -5-3 -3* 3   -3
But the fool on the hill
3    -3  -3* -3  3    3
Sees the sun go-ing down,
-3  -3*  4  -3* -3   -3*
And the eyes in his head,
4   -5    6    -6    6    -5
See the world spin-ning ‘round.

Well on his way his head in a cloud,
The man of a thousand voices 
talking perfectly loud
But nobody ever hears him,
Or the sound he appears to make,
And he never seems to notice,
But the fool on the hill . . .

-4  6  6   6   -5  -6*  6
No-bod-y seems to like him
-4   -3   -4   -5  -5   -5  -4-5-3-4
They can tell what he wants to  do.
-3  -4  6  -5   6   -5   6   -6*
And he nev-er shows his feel-ings,

-5   5* -5-3 -3* 3   -3
But the fool on the hill
3    -3  -3* -3  3    3
Sees the sun go-ing down,
-3  -3*  4  -3* -3   -3*
And the eyes in his head,
4   -5    6    -6    6    -5
See the world spin-ning ‘round.
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
