then it goes straight into it- 
listen to how he plays the C/G chord
 in the song (3rd
fret on A string then 3rd fret on 
the E string)

C/G                      F       
  Fool's gold on Main St. from 
                   C/G
stop signs to dangling telephones
C/G                            F 
Children delivering newspapers, 
                        G
all the grotesque and the hum-drum
F               C/G        Em   
   I used not to worry but now 
          F
it's all I do
F                   C/G          
   I used to be in a hurry but 
      Em               F
now I'm dragging both my boots
F                                 
Wondering how to get from Main to 
G                F*
Meadoooooooooooooow

*With that F chord it goes something
 like (it can be played in a couple 
variations
different from this one):

Listen to the song to get this bit 
right


C/G                              
From fisherman to fish to 
F                      C/G
butcher, the struggle is never 
ending
        C/G                        
You can put your life down on paper
       F                  G      F
 but it's not the same as swimming
           C/G                Em  
I dropped a hint and you were kind
            F
 enough to retrieve it
F                        C/G     
  You asked me where the trouble 
                 Em             
was and you were sweet enough to 
    F
believe it
But it was such a sad lie I had to 
G     F*
whisper


C/G                              
What happened to Blake and Eric, 
F                 C/G
Douglas, Phil and Amanda?
  C/G                              
What happened to Jennifer the 
F                     G     F
Great, who loved me before anyone?
                       C/G        
They're flying into the ground or 
Em                     F
walking high around my city
                          C/G      
While my head is just some town you
  Em              F
 wouldn't want to visit
It's crowded and the people all look
 G      F*
 ghostly

C/G                      F       
Fool's gold on Main St., 
                 C/G
shuffling through orphan trash
    C/G                        
The birds search for the sun at 
           F                
their feet in every crumb of 
            G
shattered glass
F                 C/G            
I slipped on holy blinders as if 
        Em           F
I could turn my body in
                     C/G           
If I'm guilty when I despair, will 
Em                     F
hope make me innocent again
Or will it only get me through this
G      F*
 winter?

C/G                       F      
There are neon invitations where 
                     C/G
shameless billboards babble
You belong to nothing at all now 
     F                    G
since your pockets have unraveled
F                              
Your soul is just a drop of the
C/G         Em                   
 dream we collected with pans in 
    F
the stream
                          C/G      
The streets of heaven are lined 
             Em                  
with it and the streets of heaven 
  F
are clean
But everything you'll ever touch is 
G    F*
dirty
