Fountains of Wayne is an American power pop band, formed in 1995.  The band name was taken from the name of a lawn-ornament store in Wayne, New Jersey, not far from Montclair, New Jersey, the hometown of the band's bassist and cofounder Adam Schlesinger (it has since gone out of business).  The band was formed by Schlesinger and Chris Collingwood. The two first met as freshmen at Williams College and began playing music together in various bands. The two eventually went their separate ways with Collingwood forming the Mercy Buckets in Boston and Schlesinger forming IVY in New York City.

Fountains of Wayne est un groupe d'indie rock américain à forte tendance power pop du Massachusetts, à ranger entre Weezer et Nada Surf. Il est composé, entre autres, de Chris Collingwood et d'Adam Schlesinger, co-fondateurs du groupe en 1995. Leur premier album en 1996 Fountains of Wayne, est porté par le single Sink to the bottom. 

Die Band wurde von Adam Schlesinger und Chris Collingwood gegründet. Die beiden lernten sich auf dem College kennen und spielten bald zusammen in wechselnden Bands. Zwischenzeitlich gingen sie getrennte Wege, trafen sich aber Mitte der 1990er Jahre wieder und gründeten Fountains of Wayne. Ein Demotape brachte ihnen schlie

There's fire in the canyon
Bm          Em
Rain on the plain
       C             G
and an eerie kind of sadness
       D7      G
on the highway today
       G
Was it driving together
     Bm       Em
That drove us apart
       C            G
Or did we change directions
        D7
chasing arrows and hearts


           Em        D7
We've been wondering alone
         G
Such a long time
Bm           C             G
Lose our way we go town to town
  Em             D7
Believe us to be born
          G                 Em
Into a path straight and narrow
    C           D7              G
On every crooked road we travel down


        G 
And I'm checking out the road signs
Bm      Em
Highway hotels
          C                G
And their air-conditioned cable-ready
D7
Cold padded cells
       G
And we read them like stories
   Bm        Em
In trash magazines
       C            G            D7
But we ain;t really sure what it means

We've been wondering alone

Such a long time

I ride this motorway

For a thousand miles a day

Each town is steeped in rain

And I know each one by name

'Cause this world is wrapped around me

Traffic and Weather

Intro:
A        C#m     Bm     Esus4   E 

         A                                                 
Well she picked me up in a German car
        C#m
and she took me out to an Irish bar
        Bm
where I drank some beer in a plastic cup
       E		D
'til I had some trouble standing up
	     A
And then she drove downtown to a strobe-lit space
     	      C#m
where all the guys wore chains and the thumping bass
    	 Bm
was so intense I could barely feel my face
      E
and I think I asked her back to my place



    F#m	            Bm7
But that's all I recall
           E 		  A
and when I woke up in the hall
       F#m             Bm7
I was alone and softly groaning
       E                 Fdim
and I lost my keys and I lost my phone
       F#m          Bm7
and I wonder what I did or said
     E               A
that I might soon regret
         F#m		Bm7
It was a night I can't remember
	 E                A
with the girl I can't forget   


Repeat intro:
C#m      Bm          Esus4    E


            A
Well I was reeling, watching the ceiling spin
          C#m
the next evening when my friends walked in
            Bm
and when I asked them if they knew where I'd been
            E                          D
they didn't speak at first, they only grinned
            A                     
You see I'm not the type to get in fights
          C#m 
but that might not have been the case last night
              Bm
because they heard that I had a word or two
       E 
with a man who asked, "Is she with you?"


         F#m		    Bm7
And if I took it the wrong way
               E              A
I guess that's not for me to say
          F#m               Bm7
though it seems I may have slipped up
        E                Fdim
when I offered him some grooming tips
        F#m               Bm7
But at least that helps explain
             E             A
the cuts and bruises on my head
         F#m           Bm7
from the night I can't remember
         E            A
with the girl I can't forget


Bridge:
C#m     F#m      Bm     E   C#m

                               F#m
And it's all coming back now   
                               Bm
Don't know how to react now    
				E
Guess I'll let it go
				
I'm not so sure I want to know


           A
Well I was back at work at 9:15
       C#m
when a message popped up on my screen
         Bm
It said, "Pick me up at 8:45
    E
and we can give it one more try"


    F#m               Bm7
And now that I'm with her
                E              A
the whole thing seems a bit absurd
           F#m             Bm7
though she never fails to tell the tale
       E                Fdim
of the time she had to post my bail
        F#m         Bm7
And for giving me a second chance
        E           A
I'm forever in her debt
          F#m              Bm7
since the night I can't remember
          E                        D A D A D A Bm A A6
she's the girl I won't ever forget

Hours on the phone making pointless calls

Sometimes I catch myself staring into space

Far away from each other every day?

Em                  Bm
Why must I spend my time

              C
Filling up my mind

They never add up anyway

Verse 1
Dsus2                  A                         Bm 
The clock's running down, the team's losing ground
         G            Dsus2
To the opposing defense
                   A                   Bm 
The young quarterback waits for the snap
                    G
When suddenly it all starts to make sense

Chorus
Dsus2                 A
He's got all kinds of time
                      C
He's got all kinds of time
             G
All kinds of time
Dsus2                 A
He's got all kinds of time
                 C  G
All kinds of time

Verse 2
Dsus2              A                   Bm 
He takes a step back, he's under attack
                  G                     Dsus2
But he knows that no one can touch him now
                   A                   Bm 
He seems so at ease, a strange inner peace
                    G
Is all that he's feeling somehow

Chorus
Dsus2                 A
He's got all kinds of time
                      C
He's got all kinds of time
             G
All kinds of time

He's got all kinds of time

All kinds of time

Gathered around the widescreen TV

Solo

Verse 3
Dsus2            A

Bm
He looks to the right
               G                 Dsus2            
And there in a golden ray of light
            A
Is his open man
               Bm
Just like he planned
                  G
The whole world is his tonight

Welcome Interstate Managers

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,

Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier

Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café

I dissected each sentence but kept coming up empty

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

and you hate yourself and wanna die

when you're filled with anxiety
             D                   A
and everyone's your enemy
A                                        E

because you think you can't do your best
A                                         E
when you write yourself a stupid song
           D                        A
to remind yourself that you forgot

Overreacting

C#
There's a portrait
     Ab
In a back room
           F#
Which I'll keep for days upon
          C#
Which I relent 
              B
And gaze for hours on
    Bbm                  F#
The muscle, skin and bone
         Ab
Of some imaginary friend

F# Ab F#

        C#
So how about it 
        Ab
Show me please 
           F#
How I will look in twenty years
           C#
And let me please 
          B
Interpret history 
       Bbm        F#
In every line and scar 
               Ab                  
That's painted there in front of me

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

           C#
It doesn't matter
         Ab
What I'm thinking
       F#
What I tell myself to do
         C#      F#
I end up calling

       C#
I stay in to
                   Ab
Defrost the fridge
        F#
Now the kid has gone to bed
             C#
A feeling of dread
              B         
At least when she's around
    Bbm
The trouble's there
     F#                        Ab
It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

       C#
Listen Johnny
              F#
You're like a mother
       C#                     F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

       C#
Listen Johnny
              Ab
You're like a mother
       F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.
