This is a great song, it's got a Van Morrison vibe. Nice job!!!

Wilco - Jesus, etc., from Yankee Hotel Foxtrot (2002)

I was down and out with the writing on the wall
A harder fall when you're standing 10 feet tall
Boots in the mud and I'm reaching out to you
I say "my love" you say I'm a fool.

If I'm a fool then you's a clown
stay with me baby
If I'm a fool then you's a clown
Won't you, stay with me

Is it all my fault that you don't feel alive?
Like you're working on the front assembly line.
The world spins round so what am I to do?
While I'm watching every piece of it unglue.
I know you had a vision hanging in your head
But the world's a cold and unrelenting mess
It's hard to find the truth and know what the hell to do
so just stay with me,  stay with me.

Stay with me darlin'
Don't know what else to do
So won't you just 
Hang with me honey
Tell me "I do"
Cause I do

If I'm a fool then you's a clown
stay with me baby
If I'm a fool then you's a clown
Won't you, stay with me

The melody is missing notes
The singer left the band
My everything is in  your hands.

So won't you 
Stay with me darlin'
Don't know what else to do
Won't you just
Hang with me honey
Tell me "I do"

If I'm a fool then you's a clown
stay with me baby
If I'm a fool then you's a clown
Won't you, stay with me

Keep it moving on, I'm moving on

If I'm a Fool
