The Fool On The Hill

A música The Fool on the Hill foi inspirada por uma experiência espiritual que Paul McCartney teve na Índia. McCartney queria captar a ideia de uma pessoa observadora e sábia, que, apesar de ser vista como um tolo, na verdade percebe profundezentes verdades sobre a vida. Ela foi composta durante o período em que os Beatles estavam explorando a meditação transcendental.

Introdução:

  D                                      G  
Day after day, alone on a hill
             D                                                                                            Em  
The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still
          Em                                      A7                                         Bm  
But nobody wants to know him, they can see that he's just a fool
          Em                                            A7  
and he never gives an answer
                        Dm                                                            Gm  
But the fool on the hill sees the sun going down
                     C7                                                              A7                                 D  
and the eyes in his head see the world spinning round
  D                                                    G  
Well on the way, his head in a cloud
             D                                                                                 Em  
The man of a thousand voices talking perfectly loud
          Em                            A7                                         Bm  
But nobody ever hears him, or the sound he appears to make
          Em                                            A7  
And he never seems to notice
                        Dm                                                            Gm  
But the fool on the hill sees the sun going down
                     C7                                                              A7                                 D  
and the eyes in his head see the world spinning round
          Em                                      A7                                         Bm  
And nobody seems to like him, they can tell what he wants to do
          Em                                              A7  
and he never shows his feelings
                        Dm                                                            Gm  
But the fool on the hill sees the sun going down
                     C7                                                              A7                                 D  
and the eyes in his head see the world spinning round
  D            G                 D              G              D              Em  
  oh__    oh___    round, round, round, round, round
          Em                                      A7                            Bm  
And he never listens to them, he knows that they're the fool
Em                                            A7  
        they don't like him
                        Dm                                                            Gm  
But the fool on the hill sees the sun going down
                     C7                                                              A7                                 D  
and the eyes in his head see the world spinning round
