Biography:
The Refreshments es una banda de Arizona, USA (no confundir con otra del mismo nombre que es sueca), que aunque en nuestro país no tuvo ninguna difusión, algunos quizás recuerden por el tema principal de la serie animada "King of the Hill" que emitía Fox, llamado "Yahoos and Triangles". The Refreshments tuvo sus épocas de gloria en la era post grunge de los 90, con un sonido que mezclaba música típicamente sureña con tex-mex, punk y grunge.

Song: Fonder and Blonder
Transcribed by: Joe Daly ([email protected])
* 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

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

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
