The Fountainhead ---------------- by The Bluetones
This is another great song of the "Expecting to Fly" album. If you like it, email me and tell me about it with corrections/comments... I hope the intro is accurate enough, but it sounds good! The whole song is played with two guitars, but you can survive with just one! The rythm is a bit hard though, so you'll have to listen to the song to get it right.

Verse 1: (play with 1st intro riff) -------- Am- God knows I've tried, to bridge the gap,
I've tried to be me, Am- And time after time I've lied, just to say the things,
You wanted to hear, Em7 E Esus E Am Am7 Am (Am7 is x02213) Look, look what I've done, look what I do,
I'm starting to pull myself through, Am- Hell could feasibly freeze, but in your eyes, I'll always be...
Chorus 1: ---------
The Fountainhead, the boy whose thoughts keep running away F# G A (play this A as x0222x) And you know I'm riiight.
Verse 2: (same chord progression as verse 1) -------- Am- Wasn't it you who said, I went looking, to open the eyes of my head
And now I can see, from your mistakes, you're as blind as me
God knows I try, God know I've tried, to be something more than I am Hell could feasibly freeze, but in your eyes I'll always be...
Chorus 2: --------- Same as Chorus 1
Break: Plays basic riff, with lots of bass. ------
Verse 3: (The whole thing is played with the 1st intro riff) --------
What can I say without being profound, Am- It's a game that we play, goes round and round
I shall stick to the rules and I won't stop a fool Am- And I won't be defied and I won't lose my cool,
Can't you see what I've done can't you see what I do? Am- It's not really unique but it's hopelessly cruel,
These are my decisions these are my mistakes G A (single strum) And I'll fall down again if that what it takes...
