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.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!

Artist: The Refreshments 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
GEm Whisper congratulations in my ear
GA 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
GEm Would all do well if they'd collapse
GA And send you runnin' back here to me
CHORUS
GD Well who said "Absence makes the heart grow fonder"?
GEm In all the pictures that you send me now
GEmA Your hair seems to get just a little bit blonder
D Cars break down
Bm/Bm7 And people break down and
GA other things break down too
Em I felt somethin' slip when you left on your trip
GAD And now I think I'm breakin' down on you
DBm/Bm7GEmGA
D Could you be more specific dear
Bm/Bm7 Tell me what is so terrific here
GEm Don't be to scientific but make it clear
GA and never fear I'll be scratchin' it down my nails in clay
CHORUS
GD Well who said "Absence makes the heart grow fonder"?
GEm In all the pictures that you send me now
GEmA Your hair seems to get just a little bit blonder
D Cars break down
Bm/Bm7 And people break down and
GA other things break down too
Em I felt somethin' slip when you left on your trip
GAD And now I think I'm breakin' down on you
GD Have another sedative It gets so repetitive
GD And don't do a damn to help me feel O.K.
GD And all the breath of me here from you and that would be very nice
EmG If ever it'll help me get through the day, yeah yeah yeah yeah,
SOLO (Play main part four times)

CHORUS
GD Well who said "Absence makes the heart grow fonder"?
GEm In all the pictures that you send me now
GEmA Your hair seems to get just a little bit blonder
D Cars break down
Bm/Bm7 And people break down and
GA other things break down too
Em I felt somethin' slip when you left on your trip
GA And now I think I'm breakin' down on...
D Cars break down

GA other things break down too (spoken)
Em I felt somethin' slip when you left on your trip
