Biography:
The Novel Ideas are a country folk quintet of friends from the great state of Massachusetts. Featuring the voices of three different songwriters, The Novel Ideas create a blend of pastoral, harmony driven, and plaintive Americana. They spent the past year playing shows in support of their debut album, “Home,” which was recorded in a barn in Jaffrey, NH. In June 2014 they released a 10" single "Lost on the Road", featuring two new songs and marking the band's first effort as a five piece.

Fmaj7/C Gadd4
(hammer on with middle finger on the C and Fmaj7/C throughout the song)
Hell it was crystal clear
C
Why you left me standing here
Fmaj7/C
But the wake you left behind
C Fmaj7/C
It's got me swimming every night
C Fmaj7/C
And I've got god on my side
C Fmaj7/C
For the first time in my life
C Fmaj7/C
I feel the rising of the sea, the waves keep crashing at my feet
C Fmaj7/C Am Gadd4 Fmaj7/C
He's sent a flood to set me free
Am Gadd4
(same as first verse)
I never knew how much it hurt
But they say you have to learn
If you're gonna write at all
You won't know you're flying till you fall
And my foods been tasting plain
And the sky don't look the same
How'd she take that away?
Left me here in such a state, turned the blue I saw to grey
(Break: C, Fmaj7/C, C, Fmaj7/C
Am, Gadd4, Fmaj7/C x2
Am, Gadd4, C)
It's never like the fights on the TV shows
C Fmaj7/C
It goes down, in real life, so bad you're walkin' home
C Fmaj7/C
Now I know, what it means to be alone
Am Gadd4 Fmaj7/C
Harder than your heart of stone, you don't want this heart of gold
Am Gadd4 Fmaj7/C Am Gadd4 Fmaj7/C
You don't want this heart of gold
C Fmaj7/C
you don't want this heart of gold
C Fmaj7/C Am, Gadd4, Fmaj7/C, Am Gadd4, Fmaj7/C,
No you don't want this heart at all
Am, Gadd4, C
(same as verse)
I guess I better write this down, so I know my way around
And I can finally ask you how, you could stand and watch me drown
I'll say the things I'm thinking now
