Biography:
The Continental Drifters an American rock band, formed in Los Angeles, California in 1991 and dissolved in New Orleans, Louisiana about a decade later. Though the line-up changed several times, at one point the band comprised a kind of college-rock/indie-rock/power-pop supergroup, including as it did Peter Holsapple of the dBs, Mark Walton of The Dream Syndicate, Vicki Peterson of The Bangles and Susan Cowsill of The Cowsills.

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
apparently this band has been around for a while,
but this incarnation includes vickie peterson (from the bangles),
and susan cowsill (yes! from the cowsills!)
anyhoo i think this is right,
i pick or strum, and i don't play accordion, though someone
does on the recording...
a lilting, waltz-like tempo.
listen & you'll get it.
any suggestions, corrections, requests, donations?

That Much a Fool (continental drifters)
Written by Vicki Peterson
Main Vocal: VICKI
capo I
D... E... D... A (waltz-like rhythm)
A E
Remember the summer we sat in the rain
Bm D A
Counting the cars on the Southern bound trains
And just for a moment
E
Our gazes would meet
Bm D A D E D A
Lips just an instant from kisses so sweet
A
So what ever happened
E
You turned away
Bm D A
And I never thought of the right thing to say
E
So many times i have thought of the kiss
Bm
We never shared
D A
Now you?re telling me this
D
You could have fooled me
A
I had no idea
E A
That you were so very in love with me, dear
D
You did not show it
A F#m
And now it seems cruel
D
You could have fooled me
E D A
I?m that much a fool
D E D A
A E
You were a brother, a friend, and a man
Bm D A
Who i thought I knew like the back of my hand
Now you?re here waiting
E
Your eyes wet with tears
Bm D A
Confessing a love after so many years
D
Well you could have fooled me
A
I had no idea
E A
You were so very in love with me, dear
D
You did not show it
A F#m
And now it seems cruel
D
You could have fooled me
E D A
I?m that much a fool
(solo-- accordion, guitar, etc.)
D A E A D A F#m D E D A
F#m
Well i waited
Bm
And wondered
D A
What seems like a lifetime and then
F#m B7
i loved you like a brother
D E
And cherished you so as a friend
A E
Remember the winter you went away
Bm D A
Something inside of me died on that day
And now i am married
E
I play by the rules
Bm
I cannot go with you
D A
I'm that much a fool
D
But you could have fooled me
A
I had no idea
E A
That you were so very in love with me, dear
D
You did not show it
A F#m
And now it seems cruel
D
You could have fooled me
