				The Fountainhead
				----------------
				by The Bluetones
		Tabbed by Frederic Maquet  (f.maquet@ic.ac.uk)


This is another great song of the "Expecting to Fly" album.  If you like
it, email me and tell me about it with corrections/comments...
I hope the intro is accurate enough, but it sounds good!  The whole song
is played with two guitars, but you can survive with just one!  The
rythm is
a bit hard though, so you'll have to listen to the song to get it right.

--------
Em7       E (022100@1)          Esus (022200@1) EWhat (022100@1)can I say without being profound,
       Am-   Am (x02210@1)       G (320003@1)AIt's (x02220@1)a game that we play, goes round and round
        Em7    E (022100@1) Esus (022200@1)	      EI (022100@1)shall stick to the rules and I won't stop a fool
      Am-       Am (x02210@1)   G (320003@1)  AAnd (x02220@1)I won't be defied and I won't lose my cool,

	 Am-   Am (x02210@1)G (320003@1)        AIt's (x02220@1)not really unique but it's hopelessly cruel,
	Em7     E (022100@1)    Esus (022200@1) EThese (022100@1)are my decisions these are my mistakes
	 G (320003@1)	 A(single (x02220@1)strum)
