 SPEED OF A FOOL
 DAVID BALL
 F
 COULDN'T TELL ME NOTHING
 Bb                                             F
 HAD TO LEARN IT ON MY OWN
                                                     Bb
  ON THE RESTLESS SIDE OF SEVENTEEN
           C7                            F
 THE DAY THAT I LEFT HOME
 F                                                Bb
 SCREAMING DOWN THAT HIGHWAY
  F                                                         Bb
 WITH A PASSION TO BREAK ANY RULES
                C7                                                  F
 I WENT CRASHING AT THE SPEED OF A FOOL
 F Bb F
 F
 SHE WAS SERVING ALL NIGHT COFFEE
 Bb
 AT A SAN ANTONIO CAFÉ
 F
 SHE WAS HEADED NOWHERE
                                   C7
 I WAS GOING HER WAY
 F                                                               Bb
 WITH A TRUSTING SOUL AND A NAÏVE  HEART
 F                                                    Bb
 THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO
 
 SO I WENT CRASHING AT THE SPEED OF A FOOL
 
 CHORUS
 YOU'RE EITHER BORN FOR HOLDING BACK
 OR BOUND FOR LETTING GO
 SO I THROW CAUTIO TO THE WIND
 WHENEVER IT MAY BLOW
 IT'S THE ONLY WAY I KNOW
 I GO CRASHING AT THE SPEED OF A FOOL
 
 GOT A HUNGER FOR THAT HIGHWAY
 I KNOW WILL NEVER END
 LORD I CAN'T HELP WHAT I'M NOT
 AND WON'T CHANGE WHAT I AM
 'TIL THE ROLL IS CALLED UP YONDER
 TO MY OWN SELF I'LL BE TRUE
 AND GO CRASHING AT THE SPEED OF A FOOL
 
 CHORUS
 I GO CRASHING AT THE SPEED OF A FOOL
