All Fountains Of Wayne Tabs Chords

Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

E B C♯m A

EThe clock's running Bdown, the team's losing C♯mground, to the Aopposing defense

The young quarterback waits for the snap when suddenly it all starts to make sense

EHe's got all kinds of Btime, he's got all kinds of Dtime, all kinds of Atime

He's got all kinds of time, all kinds of time

He takes a step back, he's under attack, but he knows that no one can touch him now

He seems so at ease, a strange inner peace is all that he's feeling somehow

He's got all kinds of time, he's got all kinds of time, all kinds of time

He's got all kinds of time, all kinds of time

 He Amthinks of his mother, he thinks of his bride-to-Ebe B

 He Amthinks of his father, his two younger brothers

BGathered around the widescreen TV

 D--E6b~~~~~-B6b~~~~~-D7b~~~~~-A7b~~~~-

(Yes! Easiest solo ever)

He looks to the left, he looks to the right, and there in a golden ray of light

Is his open man just as he planned, the whole world is his tonight

EAll kiBnds ofD time.A..

Lyrics (as best as I can tell)

Sleepin' on a planner at the port authority,

waitin' for my bus to come,

Seven scotch and sodas at the office party

Now I don't remember where I'm from

I think I had a black wallet

In my back pocket

With a bus ticket

And a picture of my baby inside

And if I make it home alive

I'm gonna get my *** together

Cause I can't live like this forever,

You know I've come too far and I don't wanna flip

I gotta new computer and a bright future in sales

yeah yeah

(Yeah yeah), bright future in sales

yeah yeah

(Yeah yeah)

Yeah yeah

Headin' for the airport on a misty morning

Gonna catch a flight to Baltimore

Try to kill an hour with a whiskey-sour

If there's time i might have just one more

I gotta do some, quick readin'

for the big meetin'

but my head is spinning

and i can't quite open my eyes

as long as I don't have to drive

I'm gonna get my *** together

Cause I can't live like this forever,

You know I've come to far and I don't wanna flip

I gotta new computer and a bright future in sales

yeah yeah

(Yeah yeah), bright future in sales

yeah yeah

(Yeah yeah), bright future in sales

yeah yeah

(Yeah yeah), bright future in sales

yeah yeah

(Yeah yeah)

yeah yeah

I had a line on a brand new account

But now i can't seem to find where i wrote that number down,

I try to focus,

I'm starin' at the screen,

Pretendin' like a know what all these little flashing lights mean

(oh yeah)

"Denise" by Fountains of Wayne From the album UTOPIA PARKWAY

Just a little guide to help you in the reading of this transcription.

The cords F+, and F#+ are played by playing power cords in the 8th and

9th positions respectively. The reason for the + sign is to distinguish

those cords from F# that is played in the 2nd position during the Bridge

and the Chorus. The song is fun to play, and for ultimate realism, turn

the treble and middle way up on your amp to produce a great fuzzy sound.

 I'm hung up on Gyou

Well the house I'm ringing up from

Is a half a mile from you

But with the reception I'm getting

Might as well be Timbuktu

And behind the door of your home

Is a strange and foreign land

Where you speak a language I don't understand

Chorus

Now I'm going down to Jimmy's bar

Like a thousand other times

With an appetite for poison

And a suitcase full of dimes

And I'll wait there by the payphone

With one hundred other guys

With those sorry hung-up teardrops in our eyes

You're awake and trying not to be, wrapped around your pillow like a prawn

And the nighttime's wrapped around you, will be until it drops you on the dawn

From the C train to the shiny tower, kicked around

Till happy hour found you, where you can drink that smirk right off your face

And now you're leaving New York, for no better place

 A Emghost inside some Madison DAvenue display

 Like Cwater under bridges, you're slowly passing by

And the bourbon sits inside me, right now I'm a puppet in its sway

And it may be the whiskey talking, but the whiskey says I miss you every day

So I taxi to an all-night party, park me in the corner in an old chair

Sip my drink and stare out into space

And now you're leaving New York, for no better place

Sick Day

Collingwood/Schlesinger

Fountains of Wayne, 1996

Verse i

Start with fade into Am7 - Dsus4-D-Dsus2

  Am7Check out the girl in the hDsus4arbor DtuDsus2nnel

  Am7Crawling to work, sDsus4ix feeDt Dsus2under

  And the Cday has barely bGegun

  TChey're all chewing gGum and lDaughing

  At the vAm7oice of the cracklin Dsus4radio DstDsus2ation

  Am7Lead us not inDsus4to PenDn Dsus2Station

  And the bCest parts just bGegun

  We're aCll becoming oGne, aDgain

  Am7 Em Am7 [C?]

And she's making the scene with her coffee and cream

  And the copy mGachines not wDorking

  Am7 Em Am7 [C?]

She's a hell of a girl, she's alone in the world

  And she likes to say `HGey good lDookin'

  Am7She's on her wDay

  Am7She's taking a sDick day

  A♯ - C [?]

Soon..

  Am7 - Dsus4-D-Dsus2 [2x]

Verse ii

And here is the man pushing paper past her

Thinks of ways to make the day go faster

But the day goes on and on

He dreams of his lawn and all about

The pretty careerist the next cube over

The fat secretary the lunch-time lover

Till the Path train finally comes

The platforms full of bums again

Chorus II [same as I]

Solo over verse chords

Chorus III

And she's taking her time, as she's tossing a dime

At the man in the cardboard coffin

It doesn't have to be fine, she's ahead of the line

And doesn't have to be here too often

She's making a play

Bb - C - G [let ring, and false end]

She's taking a sick day soon

Drum fill and:

Fade out over Am7 - D

OK, there's some mistakes/simplifications in this one, but it ought to

get you started.

Sink to the Bottom

Fountains of Wayne, 1996

Verse I [solo voice and guitar]:

  CI wanAna Esink to the bG♯ottom with C♯myou A

  AI wannaE sink to the G♯bottom withC♯m you A

  The oEcean is bG♯ig and bC♯mlue A

  AI just wannaE sink to the G♯bottom withC♯m you

Chorus [band enters]:

  ACars on the hEighway, pG♯lanes in the C♯mair

  AEveryone eElse is goG♯ing somewC♯mhere

  ABut I'm going nEowhere, gG♯etting there C♯msoon

  AI might as wEell just sG♯ink down with C♯myou

Verse ii

I wanna sink to the bottom with you

I wanna sink to the bottom with you

The ocean is big and blue

I just wanna sink to the bottom with you

I just wanna...

Solo over same chords

Chorus ii

Out on the highway, up in the air

Everyone else is going somewhere

They're going nowhere, and I'll be there too

I might as well go under with you

Repeat Verse I (2x)

I just wanna...repeat end on E

Pretty simple. Amazing what can still be done with four chords and

some imagination. They might leave out the C#m on the solo part; I

couldn't really tell.
