[Verse 1]
[D]First you came and [A]you sold us Christianity
[Bm]But all your members [G]just lust after vanity
[D]Telling them to [A]trust in you faithfully
[Bm]Not seeing it's the [G]return of the slavery
[D]Taught us of heaven [A]way up in the sky
[Bm]Where we can't [G]reach unless we die
[D]But you can't [A]fool me again
[Bm]You can't fool [G]me again and again
[D]You can't [A]fool me again
[Bm]You just can't fool me, [G]no you can't fool me
[D]Of things you [A]taught me in school
[Bm]There's so much to [G]make me a fool
[D]But if I [A]was a mule
[Bm]I know I'd be [G]used as a tool
[D]I said that, you [A]can't fool me again
[Bm]You can't fool [G]me again, and again
[D]You can't [A]fool me again

[Bm]Said I'm to serve it [G]as lord and as savior
[D]Tell me of a heaven [A]way up in the sky
[Bm]Where I can't [G]reach unless I die

[Bm]You just can't fool me, [G]no you can't fool me
[D]You said Humpty sat [A]up on a wall
[Bm]You say Humpty, [G]he had a fall
[D]You said that [A]cow, jump over moon
[Bm]And the dish ran [G]away with the spoon
[D]But I know you [A]can't fool me again
