[Verse]
G
Well I run a little tavern on a dead end street
Cadd9
And my ears are pretty bent
By the time I close at three
D Cadd9 G
Every body's got a wish that comes in here
D Cadd9
A little amnesia for the price of a beer
G
And Dale knows that I know all about his wife
Cadd9
And what it is she's doing and
Who she's with tonight
D
But I don't say a word about it
Cadd9 G
And neither does he
D
He just talks about them Dodgers
Cadd9
And buys another drink
[Chorus]
G
Down at The Wishing Well
Em7
Forgetfulness is what's for sale
Am7
To help wash away the sin of lovers and friends
D
Or just for give themselves
G
A place to throw their money down
Em7
In hopes of getting lost or found
Am7
You ought to hear the stories
D
They don't tell
Cmaj7
Down at The Wishing Well
[Verse]
G
They say Gina was a heartbreaker
Back in her day
Cadd9
But years and hard living
Put the lines on her face
D
Now she only wants a man
Cadd9 G
Who can see her like be fore
D Cadd9
So she sips her margarita and watches the door
[Chorus]
G
Down at The Wishing Well
Em7
Forgetfulness is what's for sale
Am7
To help wash away the sin of lovers and friends
D
Or just for give themselves
G
A place to throw their money down
Em7
In hopes of getting lost or found
Am7
You ought to hear the stories
D
They don't tell
Cmaj7
Down at The Wishing Well
D
Yeah I'll pour you a drink seven nights a week
Cadd9
And I'll listen to what you say or you don't
Am7
Cause that's how I forget
D
The reasons that I'm a lone
G
Down here at The Wishing Well
Em7
Forgetfulness is what's for sale
Am7
To help wash away the sin of lovers and friends
D
Or just for give ourselves
G
A place to throw our money down
Em7
In hopes of getting lost or found
Am7
You ought to hear the stories
D
They don't tell
Cmaj7
Down at The Wishing Well
Am7
You ought to hear the stories
D
We don't tell
Cmaj7
Down at The Wishing Well
