It Takes A Fool To Remain Sane

Verse 1:
Gm7         F                     Bb
   Whatever happened to the funky race?
             C
a generation lost in pace
Gm7                     F
Wasn't life supposed to be more than this?
   Bb              C
In this kiss, I'll change your bore for my bliss
Gm7
Let go off my hand and it will
F
Slip on the sand if you don't
Bb
Give me the chance
C                                     Gm7
To break down the walls of attitude
 

      F
I ask nothing of you
Bb             C
Not even your gratitude
 
Pre-Chorus:
           Bb
And if you think I'm corny
        C
Then it will not make me sorry
          Dm                      F
It's your right to laugh at me
                    Bb                 C
And in turn, that's my opportunity
              Dm         F
To feel brave
 
Chorus:
                  Bb             C
'Cause it takes a fool to remain sane
               Dm             F
Oh, it takes a fool to remain sane
           Bb             C
It takes a fool to remain sane
               Dm             F
Oh, it takеs a fool to remain sane
 
Verse 2:
Gm7                     F
Every morning I would see hеr getting off the bus
    Bb                               C
The picture never drops, it's like a multicolored snapshot
Gm                    Am
Stuck in my brain, it kept me sane
 

Bb                           C
For a couple of years, as it drenched my fears
Gm7
Of becoming like the others
    F
Who become unhappy mothers
    Bb
And fathers of unhappy kids
    C
And why is that?
 
Pre-Chorus:
Gm7
'Cause they've forgotten how to play
F                Bb             C        Bb
Or maybe they're afraid to feel ashamed
 
Chorus:
                  Bb             C
'Cause it takes a fool to remain sane
               Dm             F
Oh, it takes a fool to remain sane
           Bb             C
It takes a fool to remain sane
               Dm             F       Gm7
Oh, it takеs a fool to remain sane
 
Brigde:
F               Bb
To seem strange
        C       Gm7
To seem insane
        F               Bb
To gain weight, to seem gay
     C
I'll tell you this

Oh, it takes a fool to remain sane
           Bb             C
It takes a fool to remain sane
               Dm             F       G      Bb
Oh, it takеs a fool to remain sane
