Capo 2

Intro: Am C F C (4x)

C            F        C 
I ran like a speeding train 

C               F          G 
Cut my hair and changed my name 

G        C         F 
Only had myself to blame 

F                 G   C 
For the company i was keeping 

Am C F C (2x) 

C                 F         C 
Curse my restless wandering feet 

C               F       G 
Prone to wander endlessly 

G                C       F 
All the love you gave to me 

F                   G    C 
It wasn't enough to keep me 

Am    C             F     C 
Oh, i stole from my father  

Am    C               F     
All i thought i could sell 

Am         C             F             C 
Tossed his copper, and i watched as it fell 

Am                   F            G            
But there wasn't any water in the wishing well 

Am C F C (2x) 

C               F    C 
Bent my knee to many kings 

C        F       G 
Idols of prosperity 

G                 C       F 
Heard that dollar calling me 

F    Am        F      C 
So i sought it in the city 

Am    C             F     C 
Oh, i stole from my father  

Am    C               F     
All i thought i could sell 

Am         C             F             C 
Tossed his copper, and i watched as it fell 

Am                   F            G            
But there wasn't any water in the wishing well 

 

Am       C              F  C   
For my soul, he made an offer 

Am         C            F 
And to the dust again i fell 

Am           C             F          C 
And oh, that devil's got a hold on me now 

              Am         F            G       C 
Because there wasn't any water in the wishing well 

Am C F C (4x)
