A D A All the big fools in town got together A D Every hopeless loving heart I know was there A D A We all sat around and told our own sad stories D E A Then they made me the big fool of the year A D A Oh they gave to me this little golden statue A D Of the torch that I carry for you dear A D E They said no one else could even come close to me D E A And that I was the big fool of the year D A I'll put my love beside any foolish love in town D A E Cause there's none can hold a light to this torch I carry round A D A I can't say that I'm too proud of the honor A D But then I guess I do deserve it dear A D A For to love you after all you've made me suffer D E A Surely makes me the big fool of the year It surely makes me the big fool of the year
