Fools Gold On Main Street Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro bit

then it goes straight into it- listen to how he plays the C/G chord in the song (3rd

fret on A string then 3rd fret on the E string)

C/G Fool's gold on Main St.F from stop signs to danglinC/Gg telephones

C/GChildren delivering newspapers,F all the grotesque and theG hum-drum

F I used not toC/G worry but Emnow it's all I Fdo

F I used to be in aC/G hurry but now I'm Emdragging both my Fboots

FWondering how to get from Main to GMeadoooooooooooooFow

Listen to the song to get this bit right

C/GFrom fisherman to fish to butcherF, the struggle is neverC/G ending

 You can C/Gput your life down on paper but itF's not the same as GswimminFg

 I dropped aC/G hint and you were Emkind enough to rFetrieve it

F You asked me where the C/Gtrouble was and you were Emsweet enough to belFieve it

 But it was such a sad lie I had to GwhispeFr

C/GWhat happened to Blake and Eric, FDouglas, Phil and C/GAmanda?

 WhC/Gat happened to Jennifer the GreatF, who loved me before GanyoneF?

 They're flying into theC/G ground or Emwalking high around my Fcity

 While my head is just someC/G town you wEmouldn't want to Fvisit

 It's crowded and the people all look GghostlyF

C/GFool's gold on Main St., Fshuffling through orphan C/Gtrash

 The C/Gbirds search for the sun at their feetF in every crumb of shattered Gglass

FI slipped on holy C/Gblinders as if I could Emturn my body Fin

 If I'm guilty when I C/Gdespair, will Emhope make me innocent aFgain

 Or will it only get me through thisG winterF?

C/GThere are neon invitationsF where shameless billboards C/Gbabble

 You belong to nothing at all now sinceF your pockets have unGraveled

FYour soul is just a drop of theC/G dream we coEmllected with pans in the Fstream

 The streets of heaven are C/Glined with it and the Emstreets of heaven are Fclean

 But everything you'll ever touch is GdirtyF

Keep on playing the F to C/G chord progression and end on C/G
