Artist: The Refreshments
Song: Fonder and Blonder
Transcribed by: Joe Daly (DissidentJ@aol.com)

* Note below that when the Bm is played, it should be alternated between
strums with a Bm7 (just lift the ol' middle finger off the B string if
you're playing the standard barre chord Bm).


Intro:

D Bm/Bm7* G Em G A (this is also the main progression throughout the song)

D
No more negotiations dear

Bm/Bm7
I'm runnin' out of patience here

G Em
Whisper congratulations in my ear

G A
When it's clear that we got nothin' much left to say


D
The monuments and maps

Bm/Bm7
The skylines and the tourist traps

G Em
Would all do well if they'd collapse

G A
And send you runnin' back here to me

CHORUS

G D
Well who said "Absence makes the heart grow fonder"?

G Em
In all the pictures that you send me now

G Em A
Your hair seems to get just a little bit blonder

D
Cars break down

Bm/Bm7
And people break down and

G A
other things break down too

Em
I felt somethin' slip when you left on your trip

G A D
And now I think I'm breakin' down on you


D Bm/Bm7 G Em G A

D
Could you be more specific dear

Bm/Bm7
Tell me what is so terrific here

G Em
Don't be to scientific but make it clear

G A
and never fear I'll be scratchin' it down my nails in clay


CHORUS

G D
Well who said "Absence makes the heart grow fonder"?

G Em
In all the pictures that you send me now

G Em A
Your hair seems to get just a little bit blonder

D
Cars break down

Bm/Bm7
And people break down and

G A
other things break down too

Em
I felt somethin' slip when you left on your trip

G A D
And now I think I'm breakin' down on you


G D
Have another sedative It gets so repetitive

G D
And don't do a damn to help me feel O.K.

G D
And all the breath of me here from you and that would be very nice

Em G
If ever it'll help me get through the day, yeah yeah yeah yeah,

SOLO
(Play main part four times)

D Bm/Bm7 G Em G A

CHORUS

G D
Well who said "Absence makes the heart grow fonder"?

G Em
In all the pictures that you send me now

G Em A
Your hair seems to get just a little bit blonder

D
Cars break down

Bm/Bm7
And people break down and

G A
other things break down too

Em
I felt somethin' slip when you left on your trip

G A
And now I think I'm breakin' down on...

D
Cars break down

Bm/Bm7
And people break down and

G A
other things break down too (spoken)

Em
I felt somethin' slip when you left on your trip

G A D
And now I think I'm breakin' down on you

G Bm/Bm7 G Em G A (fade out)
