Guster - Well Chords

[Intro]
D   Em   Bm   D
 
 
[Verse 1]
D
Late afternoon when the sun was unraveling
D
Walking the trail to the end of the gravel
    Em                                    Bm
And into the well went a lucky old silver coin
Bm
Tumbling down, in the dark I was fading
Bm
And leaning so far and so quietly waiting
D
A wish that was made at the bottom of the well
 
 
[Verse 2]
D
What happened then is so hard to recall
D
But as quick as the snap of a whip I was falling
    Em
And tumbling, following after my silver coin
Bm7
Silence as day turned into the night
Bm7
Could I go back, how I wish that I might
D
I was the boy in the bottom of the well
 
 
[Interlude]
D   Em   Bm7   D
 
 
[Verse 3]
D
My parents were weeping and frantically searching
      Em
"He'd always been wandering looking for something
Em
One moment he's here and the next he is surely gone."
        Bm
"But he didn't return for a day and night
Bm
We all knew that something just couldn't be right
  D
A voice on the phone said he'd fallen in the well"
 
 
[Verse 4]
D
I woke from my sleep with the firemen screaming
D
And lowering down all the things I was needing
  Em
A basket, a bible, a blanket, and a bell
    Bm
And dozens of voices yelling in unison
Bm
Loudly and echo-y, hazy and boom-y
D
"Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on"
 
 
[Interlude]
Em  G  Em  G
Em  G
 
 
[Verse 5]
    D
I'd always been dreaming of places and scenes
D
Fireflies only light that you see
    Em
The rhythm of crickets and toads the only sound
    Bm
And soon I'll be leaving but now I'm believing
Bm
In wishes and wells and a way to get back
       D
To the sacred place I've stumbled on and found
 
 
[Interlude]
D   Em   Bm   D
 
 
[Outro]
D
Late afternoon while the sun was unraveling
D
Walking the trail to the end of the gravel
    Em
And into the well went a lucky old silver coin
D
Tumbling down, in the dark I was fading
D
Leaning so far and so quietly waiting
