Monte Montgomery - Wishing Well

Got a little carried away at the end, but hey--- I tried.

Here's the tab as close as I could figure if you wanna play along:

INTRO: (E5 Esus2 Emaj9(No 3rd) Amaj(5th Fret) Bmaj9? B) x2 E
In the corner of a box marked lost and found A
I find myself again E
Lining the bottom of a wishing well A
with other dreams that might have been E
Flattened by the pressure of what's coming down A
I'm relying on faith second hand

CHORUS: G#m
I used to be an average man F#m G#m
with bigger than average plans
E G#m F#m
Somehow I got lost along the way
and now I'm here E
Don't you know that you could be the one A
to set me free E
I've waited all my life to be someone A
somebody could see G#m F#m G#m
You can find me still in the corner of a box Amaj (5th fret) Bmaj(5th fret)
marked lost and found at the bottom of Esus2
a wishing well E
Burdened by the weight of a wrecking ball A
I'm defining my own sense of worth E
I want to bathe my soul in the light A
as religion finds me immersed E
Destitution knows me by name A
While the trick is to sit where you stand

CHORUS

E
I'm caught shuddering by myself A
each wish in the shape of a coin E
Legal tender for wishes thrown A
as the water reflects the unknown E
The tide rips through the surface of time A
But I can't think of when it began

CHORUS

REPEAT INTRO
At the bottom of a wishing well, at the bottom of a wishing well, At the bottom of a wishing we-e-e-e-e-e-e-el-l.
