Artist:   The Refreshments
Song:   Fonder and Blonder
Transcribed by: Joe Daly (DissidentJ@aol.com)

* 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,

Well who said "Absence makes the heart grow fonder"?

              G              Em
In all the pictures that you send me now

         G                     Em        A

D
Cars break down

     Bm/Bm7
And people break down and

other things break down too (spoken)

         Em
