Ben Folds - Fred Jones Pt. 2



C Am Em G
Fred sits alone at his desk in the dark
C Am Em G
There's an awkward young shadow that waits in the hall
Am Am/F Am Am/F
He's cleared all his things and he's put them in boxes
C C G G
Things that remind him: 'Life has been good'

Fmaj7
Twenty-five years
Fmaj7/D (x57555)
He's worked at the paper
C C G G
A man's here to take him downstairs
C G F
And I'm sorry, Mr. Jones
G C
It's time

There was no party, there were no songs
'Cause today's just a day like the day that he started
Noone has left here that knows his first name
And life barrels on like a runaway train
Where the passengers change
They don't change anything
You get off; someone else can get on

And I'm sorry, Mr. Jones
It's time

Am G
Streetlight shines through the shades
F C G
Casting lines on the floor, and lines on his face
F C
He reflects on the day

Solo over Am G ?

C Am Em G
Fred gets his paints out and goes to the basement
C Am Em G
Projecting some slides onto a plain white
Am Am/F
Canvas and traces it
Am Am/F
Fills in the spaces
C C G G
He turns off the slides, and it doesn't look right
Fmaj7
Yeah, and all of these bastards
Fmaj7/D
Have taken his place
C G
He's forgotten but not yet gone

C G F G
And I'm sorry, Mr. Jones
C G F G
And I'm sorry, Mr. Jones
C G F
And I'm sorry, Mr. Jones
G C
It's time
