FOUNTAIN OF SORROW - Jackson Browne (Album: Late for the sky)
Intro |Dm |Bb |Bb |F | |Dm |C |Bb |F |
DmCBbF Looking through some photographs I found inside a drawer DmCBbF I was taken by a photograph of you DmCBbF There were one or two I know that you would have liked a little more DmCBbF But they didn't show your spirit quite as true
AmF You were turning 'round to see who was behind you AmCC/Bb And I took your childish laughter by surprise Bb/FDm And at the moment that my camera happened to find you GmBbF There was just a trace of sorrow in your eyes
DmCBbF Now the things that I remember seem so distant and so small DmCBbF Though it hasn't really been that long a time DmCBbF What I was seeing wasn't what was happening at all DmCBbF Although for a while, our path did seem to climb
AmF But when you see through love's illusions, there lies the danger AmCC/Bb And your perfect lover just looks like a perfect fool Bb/FDm So you go running off in search of a perfect stranger GmBb While the loneliness seems to spring from your life FC/EDmC/EDmC Like a fountain from a pool
BbF/CA/C#Dm ( C ) Fountain of sorrow, fountain of light BbF/CA/C#Dm ( C ) You've known that hollow sound of your own steps in flight BbF/CA/C#Dm You've had to hide sometimes, but now you're all right F/CBb/C And it's good to see your smiling face tonight
DmCBbF Now for you and me it may not be that hard to reach our dreams DmCBbF But that magic feeling never seems to last DmCBb And while the future's there for anyone to change, still you know it's F seems DmCBbF It would be easier sometimes to change the past
AmF I'm just one or two years and a couple of changes behind you AmCC/Bb In my lessons at love's pain and heartache school Bb/FDm Where if you feel too free and you need something to remind you GmBb There's this loneliness springing up from your life FC/EDmC/EDmC Like a fountain from a pool
BbF/CA/C#Dm ( C ) Fountain of sorrow, fountain of light BbF/CA/C#Dm ( C ) You've known that hollow sound of your own steps in flight BbF/CA/C#Dm You've had to hide sometimes but now you're all right F/CBb/C And it's good to see your smiling face tonight
BbF/CA/C#Dm ( C ) Fountain of sorrow, fountain of light BbF/CA/C#Dm ( C ) You've known that hollow sound of your own steps in flight BbF/CA/C#Dm ( C ) You've had to struggle, you've had to fight BbF/CA/C#Dm ( C ) To keep understanding and compassion in sight BbF/CA/C#Dm ( C ) You could be laughing at me, you've got the right BbF/CA/C#Dm ( C ) But you go on smiling so clear and so bright
