Fountain Of Sorrow Chords by Joan Baez

_ [G] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
[Gm] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ [C] _ _ [Bb] _ _ While [Gm] I was looking through [F] some photographs [Eb] I found inside [Bb] your drawer, _ [Gm] I was taken by [F] a photograph of [Eb] you.
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [Gm]
There were one or two [F] I know that you would [Eb] have liked a little [Bb] more, _ [Gm] but they didn't show [F] your spirit quite [Eb] through.
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ You [Dm] were turning around to see who [Bb] was behind you, _ _ [Dm] and I took your childish laughter by [Bb] _ _ _ [Fm] surprise.
_ And [Eb] at the moment that my camera [Gm] happened to find _ you, _ _ [Cm] there was just the trace [Eb] of sorrow in [Bb] your _ _ eyes. _ _
[Gm] Now the things that I [F] remember _ [Eb] seem so distant and [Bb] so small, [Gm] though it hasn't really [F] been that long [Eb] a time.
_ [Bb] _ _ _
[Gm] What I was [F] seeing wasn't really [Eb] happening at [Bb] _ _ all, [Gm] although for a while [F] our paths did seem [Eb] to find.
_ [Bb] _ _ _
[Dm] When you see through love's [Dm] illusions there [Bb] lies the danger, _ _ _ [Dm] and your perfect lover just looks like a [F] perfect fool.
_ _ _ So [Eb] you go running off in search of [Gm] a perfect _ stranger, _ _ _ _ [Cm] while the loneliness [Eb] seems to spring from your life [Bb] like a fountain from a [F] pool.
[Gm] _ _
[Eb] _ _ Fountain [Bb] of _ sorrow, [Gb] _ _ fountain [Gm] of _ _ _
[Eb] _ life, [Bb] you've known the hollow [D] sound of your own [Gm] steps in flight. _
[Eb] _ _ You've [Bb] had to hide [D] sometimes, but now you're [Gm] _ alright, [Bb] and it's good to see [Eb] your smiling face tonight.
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gm] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
[Gm] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[Gm] Now for you and me, [F] it may not be [Eb] that hard to reach [Bb] our dreams, [Gm] but that magic feeling [F] never seems [Eb] to last.
_ [Bb] _ _ [Gm] And while the future's there for [F] anyone to [Eb] change, still you know it [Bb] _ seems it [Gm] would be easier sometimes [F] to change [Eb] [Gm] paths.
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[Dm] I'm just one or two years and a couple of changes [Bb] behind _ _ you, _ [Dm] and my lessons at love's pain and [G] heartache school.
_ _ [F] _ _ Where if you [Eb] feel too free and you need something to [Gm] remind you, _ _ _ [Cm]
there's this loneliness [Eb] springing up from your life [Bb] like a [G] fountain from a pool. _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ Fountain of [Bb] _ sorrow, _
[Gb] _ _ fountain [Gm] of _ [Bb] _ _
[Eb] life, you've known [Bb] the hollow sound [Gb] of your own steps [Gm] in flight.
[Eb] _
_ _ You've had [Bb] to hide sometimes, [D] but now [Gm] you're _ alright, [Bb] and it's good to see [Eb] your smiling face tonight.
_ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
