The young quarterback waits for the snap when suddenly it all starts to make sense
He's got all kinds of time, all kinds of time
He takes a step back, he's under attack, but he knows that no one can touch him now
He seems so at ease, a strange inner peace is all that he's feeling somehow
He's got all kinds of time, he's got all kinds of time, all kinds of time
He's got all kinds of time, all kinds of time
(Yes! Easiest solo ever)
He looks to the left, he looks to the right, and there in a golden ray of light
Is his open man just as he planned, the whole world is his tonight

Lyrics (as best as I can tell)
Sleepin' on a planner at the port authority,
waitin' for my bus to come,
Seven scotch and sodas at the office party
Now I don't remember where I'm from
I think I had a black wallet
In my back pocket
With a bus ticket
And a picture of my baby inside
And if I make it home alive
I'm gonna get my *** together
Cause I can't live like this forever,
You know I've come too far and I don't wanna flip
I gotta new computer and a bright future in sales
yeah yeah
(Yeah yeah), bright future in sales
yeah yeah
(Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah
Headin' for the airport on a misty morning
Gonna catch a flight to Baltimore
Try to kill an hour with a whiskey-sour
If there's time i might have just one more
I gotta do some, quick readin'
for the big meetin'
but my head is spinning
and i can't quite open my eyes
as long as I don't have to drive
I'm gonna get my *** together
Cause I can't live like this forever,
You know I've come to far and I don't wanna flip
I gotta new computer and a bright future in sales
yeah yeah
(Yeah yeah), bright future in sales
yeah yeah
(Yeah yeah), bright future in sales
yeah yeah
(Yeah yeah), bright future in sales
yeah yeah
(Yeah yeah)
yeah yeah
I had a line on a brand new account
But now i can't seem to find where i wrote that number down,
I try to focus,
I'm starin' at the screen,
Pretendin' like a know what all these little flashing lights mean
(oh yeah)
"Denise" by Fountains of Wayne From the album UTOPIA PARKWAY
Just a little guide to help you in the reading of this transcription.
The cords F+, and F#+ are played by playing power cords in the 8th and
9th positions respectively. The reason for the + sign is to distinguish
those cords from F# that is played in the 2nd position during the Bridge
and the Chorus. The song is fun to play, and for ultimate realism, turn
the treble and middle way up on your amp to produce a great fuzzy sound.
{section: Verse 1}
I know this girl named Denise
She makes me weak at the knees
She drives a lavender Lexus
She lives is Queens but her dad lives in Texas
{section: Bridge}
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, When she holds me
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, I can't help myself
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, Won't you tell me?
Do you love me Denise? Whoa-ah!
Do you love me Denise?
{section: Chorus}
Oh baby, tell me please, (do-ya, do-ya, ah-oh, do-ya do-ya )
Aflat
Ah-oh, do-ya, do-ya, Ah-oh, do-ya, do-ya
Oh baby, tell me please, (do-ya, do-ya, ah-oh, do-ya do-ya )
Main Riff 2X:
I heard she used to be married
She listens to Puff Daddy
She works at Liberty Travel
She gotta heart made of gravel
{section: Bridge}
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, She controls me
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, She can't help herself
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, Won't you tell me?
Do you love me Denise? Whoa-ah!
Do you love me Denise?

Well the house I'm ringing up from
Is a half a mile from you
But with the reception I'm getting
Might as well be Timbuktu
And behind the door of your home
Is a strange and foreign land
Where you speak a language I don't understand
{section: Chorus}
Now I'm going down to Jimmy's bar
Like a thousand other times
With an appetite for poison
And a suitcase full of dimes
And I'll wait there by the payphone
With one hundred other guys
With those sorry hung-up teardrops in our eyes

LEAVE THE BIKER - Fountains of Wayne
{section: Chorus_1}
Repeat Chorus_1
{section: Chorus_2}
Rain's coming down I can't see a thing / radio's broken so I'm whistling
I go to work, I come back home
Stuck in a meeting on Monday night / trying to get the numbers to come out right
I'm getting tired, I think I just might need a drink
And as I'm reaching in the bottom drawer / I'm dreaming 'bout the way it was before
Life was so easy I never really had to think
It's not right, it's not fair / I'm still a mess and you still don't care
I go to sleep, when I wake up
The pain sets in and it never stops
And the little red light's not blinking / no, no the little red light's not blinking
No, no the little red light's not blinking
On the desktop mailbox of my big black laptop, oh no
(Solo over verse chords)
It's not right, it's not fair / I'm still a mess and you still don't care
I go to work, I come back home
But you're still gone and I'm still alone
And the little red light's not blinking / no, no the little red light's not blinking
No, no the little red light's not blinking
On my big black Radio Shack digital portable phone, oh no
The water was used to make baby lotion
The wheels of promotion were set into motion
I'll be yours if you'll be mine
I tried to change, but I changed my mind

She left her pills in the glove compartment
That was the afternoon her heart went
And the sun still shines in the summer time
I'll be yours if you'll be mine
I tried to change, but I changed my mind
Think I'll have another glass of Mexican wine
Think I'll have another glass of Mexican wine

Is that supposed to be your poker face, or was someone run over by a train
And you were minding your own business, but you're begging for forgiveness just the same
You're awake and trying not to be, wrapped around your pillow like a prawn
And the nighttime's wrapped around you, will be until it drops you on the dawn
From the C train to the shiny tower, kicked around
Till happy hour found you, where you can drink that smirk right off your face
And now you're leaving New York, for no better place
And the bourbon sits inside me, right now I'm a puppet in its sway
And it may be the whiskey talking, but the whiskey says I miss you every day
So I taxi to an all-night party, park me in the corner in an old chair
Sip my drink and stare out into space
And now you're leaving New York, for no better place
And now you're leaving New York, for no better place

Prom Theme Chris Collingwood and Adam Schelsinger
Fountains of Wayne from "Utopia Parkway"
And we'll sing our prom theme
(The break is an instrumental with heavy strings that is basically a repeat of
the verse and chorus but goes off on a discordant tangent at one point, then
comes back to...)
to sing our prom theme.

Sick Day
Collingwood/Schlesinger
Fountains of Wayne, 1996
{section: Verse i}
Start with fade into Am7 - Dsus4-D-Dsus2
And she's making the scene with her coffee and cream
She's a hell of a girl, she's alone in the world
Soon..
{section: Verse ii}
And here is the man pushing paper past her
Thinks of ways to make the day go faster
But the day goes on and on
He dreams of his lawn and all about
The pretty careerist the next cube over
The fat secretary the lunch-time lover
Till the Path train finally comes
The platforms full of bums again
Chorus II [same as I]
Solo over verse chords
Chorus III
And she's taking her time, as she's tossing a dime
At the man in the cardboard coffin
It doesn't have to be fine, she's ahead of the line
And doesn't have to be here too often
She's making a play
Bb - C - G [let ring, and false end]
She's taking a sick day soon
Drum fill and:
Fade out over Am7 - D
OK, there's some mistakes/simplifications in this one, but it ought to

Sink to the Bottom
Collingwood/Schlesinger
Fountains of Wayne, 1996
Verse I [solo voice and guitar]:
Chorus [band enters]:
{section: Verse ii}
I wanna sink to the bottom with you
I wanna sink to the bottom with you
The ocean is big and blue
I just wanna sink to the bottom with you
I just wanna...
Solo over same chords
{section: Chorus ii}
Out on the highway, up in the air
Everyone else is going somewhere
They're going nowhere, and I'll be there too
I might as well go under with you
Repeat Verse I (2x)
I just wanna...repeat end on E
Pretty simple. Amazing what can still be done with four chords and
some imagination. They might leave out the C#m on the solo part; I
couldn't really tell.

Don't you wanna ride in my survival car
(Distorted):
Next Verse (same pattern):
Doing what the young folks do in west coast towns
Howling like a banshee through the overground
Funny how the ground can find my wheels
I'm going where the road won't tear
And only riding on the path we made to Union Square

Funny how the ground can find my wheels

{tuning: Standard (EADGBE)}
[E]  [B]  [C#m]  [A]

[E]The clock's running [B]down, the team's losing [C#m]ground, to the [A]opposing defense
The young quarterback waits for the snap when suddenly it all starts to make sense

[E]He's got all kinds of [B]time, he's got all kinds of [D]time, all kinds of [A]time
He's got all kinds of time, all kinds of time

He takes a step back, he's under attack, but he knows that no one can touch him now
He seems so at ease, a strange inner peace is all that he's feeling somehow

He's got all kinds of time, he's got all kinds of time, all kinds of time
He's got all kinds of time, all kinds of time

He [Am]thinks of his mother, he thinks of his bride-to-[E]be   [B]
He [Am]thinks of his father, his two younger brothers
[B]Gathered around the widescreen TV

D--[E]6b~~~~~-[B]6b~~~~~-[D]7b~~~~~-[A]7b~~~~-
(Yes!  Easiest solo ever)

He looks to the left, he looks to the right, and there in a golden ray of light
Is his open man just as he planned, the whole world is his tonight

[E]All ki[B]nds of[D] time.[A]..

Barbara [B].

{section: Verse 1}
[D]for a small girl
[D]barbara sure has got a big crush
[D]the kind that makes you want to [G]break stuff
[G]and blame it on a man you don't [D]know

{section: Verse 2}
[D]she came down
[D]to new york city in a big bus
[D]nine hours driving and you [G]can't just stay home
[G]so it doesn't matter which way you [F#]go         [A]

{section: Chorus}
because [G]all [D]day
[A]the radio's been playing the [G]same [D]song
[A]can't shake that tune but [G]it's [D]ok
[A]maybe the world isn't so [G]small
[G]barbara [Bb]knows it doesn't matter at [D]all

Interlude         [D]

{section: Verse 3}
[D]and each day
[D]barbara wakes up in a bad way
[D]tells me quietly she has absolutely [G]nothing to say
[G]but i don't seem to mind

{section: Verse 4}
[D]she say's
[D]she won't listen to the band play
[D]she hates songs that never [G]seem to go away
[G]now neither will [F#]mine       [A]

{section: Chorus}
and now [G]all [D]day
[A]the radio's been playing the [G]same [D]song
[A]can't shake that tune but it's [G]ok[D]
[A]maybe the world isn't so [G]small
[G]barbara [Bb]knows it doesn't matter at all

{section: Interlude}
[G][D]
[G]    [F#]    [A]

{section: Chorus}
and now [G]all [D]day
[A]the radio's been playing the [G]same [D]song
[A]can't shake that tune but it's [G]ok[D]
[A]maybe the world isn't so [G]small
[G]barbara [Bb]knows it doesn't matter at all
[D]barbara k[G]nows

Lyrics (as best as I can tell)

Sleepin' on a planner at the port authority,
waitin' for my bus to come,
Seven scotch and sodas at the office party
Now I don't remember where I'm from

I think I had a black wallet
In my back pocket
With a bus ticket
And a picture of my baby inside
And if I make it home alive

I'm gonna get my *** together
Cause I can't live like this forever,
You know I've come too far and I don't wanna flip
I gotta new computer and a bright future in sales
yeah yeah
(Yeah yeah), bright future in sales
yeah yeah
(Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah

Headin' for the airport on a misty morning
Gonna catch a flight to Baltimore
Try to kill an hour with a whiskey-sour
If there's time i might have just one more

I gotta do some, quick readin'
for the big meetin'
but my head is spinning
and i can't quite open my eyes
as long as I don't have to drive

I'm gonna get my *** together
Cause I can't live like this forever,
You know I've come to far and I don't wanna flip
I gotta new computer and a bright future in sales
yeah yeah
(Yeah yeah), bright future in sales
yeah yeah
(Yeah yeah), bright future in sales
yeah yeah
(Yeah yeah), bright future in sales
yeah yeah
(Yeah yeah)
yeah yeah

I had a line on a brand new account
But now i can't seem to find where i wrote that number down,
I try to focus,
I'm starin' at the screen,
Pretendin' like a know what all these little flashing lights mean

(oh yeah)

"Denise" by Fountains of Wayne From the album UTOPIA PARKWAY

Just a little guide to help you in the reading of this transcription.
The cords F+, and F#+ are played by playing power cords in the 8th and
9th positions respectively. The reason for the + sign is to distinguish
those cords from F# that is played in the 2nd position during the Bridge
and the Chorus. The song is fun to play, and for ultimate realism, turn
the treble and middle way up on your amp to produce a great fuzzy sound.

With a [G]bad tou[C]pee and a [G]soup-stained [D]tie

Would you [C]answer out of spite
Or [D]are you feeling lonely to[G]night

Cause [G]I remember last time
We were [C]out under the stars
Driving [D]crooked down the highway
Drinking [G]beer in roadside bars

And [G]now and then I wonder
Why this [C]painful memory
Can [D]never find its way to you from [G]me

{section: Chorus}
[G]And I can't dial the phone just now
Even [C]though I know your number
Can't [D]bring my broken heart to be [G]untrue
[G]Like you did today
You'll say [C]goodbye the same old way
[D]Ever since you hung up on me
I'm hung up on [G]you

Well the house I'm ringing up from
Is a half a mile from you
But with the reception I'm getting
Might as well be Timbuktu

And behind the door of your home
Is a strange and foreign land
Where you speak a language I don't understand

{section: Chorus}
Now I'm going down to Jimmy's bar
Like a thousand other times
With an appetite for poison
And a suitcase full of dimes

And I'll wait there by the payphone
With one hundred other guys
With those sorry hung-up teardrops in our eyes

{section: Chorus}
I want an alien for Christmas is not available at this time.

Kid Gloves by Fountains of Wayne (Collingwood/Schlesinger)

Intro [D]  [Em7](1)  [D]  [G/B] X2

[D]She's wearing [Em7]kid gloves   [D]          [G/B]
Will [D]handle me [Em7]carefully   [D]          [G/B]
Cause [G]I've got a history, [A7]cracked up and fragile
    [Bm]       [A]      *[G] to [G/f#]     [Em7](2)
And bound to break easy

(* don't play the full bar, hit the F# note of the G/F# chord,
on the E string, on the last beat and go straight to Em7)

[D]And if [Em7]she could talk [D]to me  [G/B]
What [D]good would it [Em7]do me     [D]            [G/B]
It's no [G]secret where I've been and [A7]I have worn so thin
And [Bm]she can see [Cadd9]through me     [D]

{section: Chorus 1}
[G]  [G/f#] [Em]        [A]
I don't believe a word of it
[G]          [G/f#]          [Em]            [A]
Can't come around to her now that I've heard of it
[Cadd9]Now that her soft touch is [D]gone
[Am]She's got her kid gloves on        (riff 2)
(riff 2 repeats from the end of the first chorus more or less
to the end of the song but its down in the mix and hard to tell)

[D]  [Em7](1)  [D]  [G/B] X2

[D]Here is what [Em7]I've found   [D]          [G/B]
New [D]York just [Em7]gets me down[D]       [G/B]
When the [G]going got tough, [A7]I got a bus ticket
[Bm]         [A]        [G] to [G/f#]     [Em7](2)
Back to my home town

And [D]all the way [Em7]I dreamed  [D]        [G/B]
[D]Flesh wrapped in [Em7]velveteen [D]       [G/B]
And the [G]road wrapped around me, the [A7]long lonely highway
Gulped [Bm]down by a [Cadd9]Greyhound      [D]

(Chorus 1)

(Solo over chords for verse, use Emaj scale)

{section: Chorus 2}
[G]  [G/f#]  [Em]       [A]
I don't believe a word of it
[G]          [G/f#]          [Em]            [A]
Can't come around to her now that I've heard of it
[G]          [G/f#]              [Em]       [A]
Won't come around cause I'll only get hurt and it
[Cadd9]Now that her soft touch is [D]gone
[Cadd9]How could she ever go [D]on
[Am]Without her kid gloves [D]on

Repeat [D]  [Em7](1)  [D]  [G/B] X6 and end on [D]

On my [C]big [C]black [C]plas[C]tic [C]Japanese [C]cordless [G]phone, [C]oh [G]no, [C]oh [G]no   [C]     [G]          [C]            [G]

Stuck in a meeting on Monday night / trying to get the numbers to come out right
I'm getting tired, I think I just might need a drink
And as I'm reaching in the bottom drawer / I'm dreaming 'bout the way it was before
Life was so easy I never really had to think

It's not right, it's not fair / I'm still a mess and you still don't care
I go to sleep, when I wake up
The pain sets in and it never stops
And the little red light's not blinking / no, no the little red light's not blinking
No, no the little red light's not blinking
On the desktop mailbox of my big black laptop, oh no

(Solo over verse chords)

It's not right, it's not fair / I'm still a mess and you still don't care
I go to work, I come back home
But you're still gone and I'm still alone
And the little red light's not blinking / no, no the little red light's not blinking
No, no the little red light's not blinking
On my big black Radio Shack digital portable phone, oh no

And the bourbon sits inside me, right now I'm a puppet in its sway
And it may be the whiskey talking, but the whiskey says I miss you every day
So I taxi to an all-night party, park me in the corner in an old chair
Sip my drink and stare out into space
And now you're leaving New York, for no better place
And now you're leaving New York, for no better place

Prom Theme      Chris Collingwood and Adam Schelsinger
Fountains of Wayne from "Utopia Parkway"

[B]Here we are at last. The [Abm7]moment soon will pass
We'll [C#m7]go our separate ways. We'll [Em]vanish in the haze
[B]We'll never be the same. We'll for[Abm7]get each other's names.
We'll grow [C#m7]old and lose our hair. It's [Em]all downhill from there.

[E]But tonight we'll [Em]reach for the [B]stars. We'll rent ex[Em]pensive [B]cars
And [F#]dream our [Cm7]dreams of a [F#]perfect [C#m7]night
          [F#]       [E-5]  [E]   [B]
And we'll sing our prom theme

[E-5]    [E]     [Em]      [B]

(The break is an instrumental with heavy strings that is basically a repeat of
the verse and chorus but goes off on a discordant tangent at one point, then
comes back to...)

[B]Here we are at last. We're [Abm7]running out of gas.
The [C#m7]air is getting thick. The [Em]girls are getting sick.
[B]We'll pass out on the beach, our [Abm7]keys just out of reach.
And [C#m7]soon we'll say goodbye, then we'll [Em]work until we die.

[E]But tonight we [Em]feel like we're [B]stars. We'll [Em]play our air gui[B]tars
 'cause [F#]we're eigh[C#m7]teen.  It's a [F#]perfect [C#m7]night
    [F#]      [E-5]  [E]   [B]
to sing our prom theme.
[E-5]    [E]     [Em]      [B]

     T[C]hey're all chewing g[G]um and l[D]aughing
     At the v[Am7]oice of the cracklin [Dsus4]radio [D]st[Dsus2]ation
     [Am7]Lead us not in[Dsus4]to Pen[D]n [Dsus2]Station

     And the copy m[G]achines not w[D]orking
     [Am7]               [Em]                       [Am7] [[C]?]
     She's a hell of a girl, she's alone in the world
     And she likes to say `H[G]ey good l[D]ookin'
     [Am7]She's on her w[D]ay
     [Am7]She's taking a s[D]ick day
     [Bb] - [C] [?]

     [Am7] - [Dsus4]-[D]-[Dsus2] [2x]

{section: Verse ii}
     And here is the man pushing paper past her
     Thinks of ways to make the day go faster
     But the day goes on and on
     He dreams of his lawn and all about
     The pretty careerist the next cube over
     The fat secretary the lunch-time lover
     Till the Path train finally comes
     The platforms full of bums again

     And she's taking her time, as she's tossing a dime
     At the man in the cardboard coffin
     It doesn't have to be fine, she's ahead of the line
     And doesn't have to be here too often
     She's making a play
                              Bb - C - G [let ring, and false end]
     She's taking a sick day soon

     Drum fill and:

     Sink to the Bottom

     [A]I wanna[E] sink to the [Ab]bottom with[C#m] you  [A]

     Chorus [band enters]:
     [A]Cars on the h[E]ighway, p[Ab]lanes in the [C#m]air
     [A]Everyone e[E]lse is go[Ab]ing somew[C#m]here
     [A]But I'm going n[E]owhere, g[Ab]etting there [C#m]soon
     [A]I might as w[E]ell just s[Ab]ink down with [C#m]you

{section: Verse ii}
     I wanna sink to the bottom with you
     I wanna sink to the bottom with you
     The ocean is big and blue
     I just wanna sink to the bottom with you

     I just wanna...

     Solo over same chords

{section: Chorus ii}
     Out on the highway, up in the air
     Everyone else is going somewhere
     They're going nowhere, and I'll be there too
     I might as well go under with you

     Repeat Verse I (2x)

     I just wanna...repeat end on E

     Pretty simple. Amazing what can still be done with four chords and
     some imagination. They might leave out the C#m on the solo part; I
     couldn't really tell.

Acoustic):
[A]                             [D]         [C#] bass note
Don't you wanna ride in my survival car

(Distorted):
[Bm]We can take the long way [D]home
[A]Through Central Park
[A]Funny how the ground can find my wheels
I'm [D]going where t[D/C#]he road ain't [Bm]there and only
[D]Riding on the[D/C#] path we [E]made to Union [A]Square

Next Verse (same pattern):

Doing what the young folks do in west coast towns
Howling like a banshee through the overground
Funny how the ground can find my wheels
I'm going where the road won't tear
And only riding on the path we made to Union Square

Next part:
[F#m]Everybody hit the ground, I think I [A]might have missed my calling
[F#m]Everbody turn around
The light's about to[D] change, you better stand [Bm]aside
Why you wanna [D]walk, don't you wanna r[G]ide, ride, r[D]ide, ride
[A]Don't you wanna ride in my [D]suvival car   [D/C#]
[Bm]We can take the long way [D]home

Last Verse:

Funny how the ground can find my wheels
I'm going where the road won't tear
And only riding on the path we made to Union Square
And only riding on the path we made...
Riding on the path we made...
Riding on the path we made to Union Square

For the last part it's back to acoustic and you just pick the chords:

Don't you wanna ride in my survival car, we can take the long way home

[Em]The King of Araby is coming home today
[Em]It's bumper touching bumper on the motorway
The [G]sun is in the [A]sky just [C]now
But the [B]road is [Em]grey
[Em]They drive in Winnebagos from the Everglades
[Em]Pulled over by the troopers in the mirror shades
The [G]Caravan is [A]sorry
[C]The driver has a [Am]twenty [B]and change
And we're [D]leaving all the road for dead
We're getting [Am]tired of the twists and turns
You gotta [D]go when human nature calls
We're [C]driving, we're [B]driving
Through the [Em]valley of malls

[Em]And God forgive the passengers if we should fail
[Em]To find a penny fountain of a half-off sale
I [G]need a [A]merchant
[C]I've just started [B]searching for a [Em]Holy Grail
[Em]Fighting for the freedom from a common bond
[Em]To be a barracuda in the guppy pond
[G]So little [A]time for [C]so many [Am]things to [B]try on

Instrumental verse same chords

And we're [D]leaving all the road for dead
We're getting [Am]tired of the twists and turns
You gotta [D]go when human nature calls
We're [C]driving, we're [B]driving
Through the [Em]valley of malls
Through the [Em]valley of malls ......

Em riff is an alternating 022000 020000 (em/em7)

[C] short days and [D]afternoons spent p[Bm]ottering around [C]
in a d[Am]ark house with the windows painted sh[C]ut

[G] Remember N[C]ew York st[D]aring outs[G]ide
[B] as wreckless winter made its w[C]ay
fr[C]om Staten [G]Island to the [C]Upper West S[G]ide
[Am]whiting out our streets along the w[C]ay

{section: Chorus 2}
The sn[D]ow is coming down on [C]our New England t[G]own
and [D]it's been falling all day l[Em]ong [Am]
wh[C]at else is n[D]ew?, wh[C]at can I [Em]do?
but s[C]ing this valley winter song I wr[D]ote for y[G]ou

Solo background chords: [G] [C] [G] [G] [D] [D] [A7] [A7] [C] [D] [Bm] [C] [Am] [Am] [C] [C]

Strumming is all downstrokes.  A, Bm, and G should all be barre cords.

[D]In about an hour
[A]The sunlight's gonna fade
[Bm]And you and me
[G]We'll divvy up the wine

[D]Like everything else here  [G]     [A]
Yours and [D]mine

[D]Pickin up the paper
[A]Coffee's been made
[Bm]It's book review and face the nation [G]time

[D]Two in the same mind  [G]     [A]
Yours and mi[D]ne

[D] [A] [Bm] [G]
[D] [G] [A] [D]
