David Francey - Wishing Well


CAPO: 6th Fret



INTRO:
C


Verse:
       F                             G
On the morning news that brought me 'round
             F               C
They put the Oklahoma bomber down
         F                              G
He might serve in heaven, might burn in hell
         F                             C
But he's no more wishes at the wishing well

Verse:
         F                         G
I should feel compassion, I know I should
        F                          C
I don't know if his dying does any good
           F                              G
But he was good as gone when the building fell
              F                                C
Ah, when they ran out of wishes at the wishing well


CHORUS:
    G                       F    C
Ah, lying on his back, eyes open wide
        G                           F      C
And the prick of the needle and the silent slide
        G                          F          C
And the Press lined up, with their stories to tell
            F                             G
How there's no more wishes at the wishing well


INSTRUMENTAL:
F  G  F  C  F  G  F  C  


Verse:
  F                         G
Today I rattled around this town
F                              C
Hands in my pockets, eyes cast down
        F                           G
And the air as still as the steeple bell
       F                            C
It was dry as a bone at the wishing well


Verse:
    F                           G
The thunderheads tower over the town
        F                                C
I'll be warm and dry, when the sky falls down
       F                                  G
And we might get lucky, but you never can tell
       F                            C
It was dry as a bone at the wishing well


CHORUS:
    G                       F    C
Ah, lying on his back, eyes open wide
        G                           F      C
And the prick of the needle and the silent slide
        G                          F          C
And the Press lined up, with their stories to tell
            F                             G
How there's no more wishes at the wishing well

Verse:
