INTRO:     D   G   Bm   Em   G  x2 

    D                        Bm 
I’m still home when the telephone rings 
    Em            G        D 
I’m impartial and a martyr. 
     D                    Bm 
It’s quite clear, wearing all of my rings 
    Em              G        D 
I’m less than feed or fodder. 


(Pre-Chorus) 

    D                   
If you want, I’ll do it 
    Bm                  Em                  G D 
But I’m so ill-equipped I’m a knot in the stitch. 
   D                       
Try the last call and dream 
Bm                   Em   
On the next try I’ll be 
G           D 
Much sweeter 
 D             Bm         Em    G 
In the next life, I’ll be better. 


 D                      G 
I toss dimes in the Wishing Well 
 D                      G                                   
And I’m broke ‘cause you took all of me 
  D                      G        
My tombstone on a grassy hill 
      Bm                       G                                    
It’s a matter of fact all my change goes to hell. 


  D                           Bm                             
Dig deep, find the villain inside 
   Em                 G          D                  
The one you dare not speak of. 
  D                             Bm                  
Find peace at the end of the line, 
    Em                 G       D                      
The dial tone is your true love.

I toss dimes in the Wishing Well      (A Wishing Well)

I toss dimes in the Wishing Well      (A Wishing Well) 
  D                 G           Bm 
I toss dimes in the Wishing Well         
                       G                             D 
It’s a matter of fact all my change goes to hell.
