I always heard it as 

        Fools rush in 
             Where angels fear to trend,
        But the angels are all in heaven,
             And few of the fools are dead.

I read it in a book of mixed up fables by the guy who wrote the "War Between
the Sexes". I can't remember his name, although it started with an F.
