Introduction:  C  

               F                                                         G 
On the morning news that brought me 'round
                           F                             C 
They put the Oklahoma bomber down
                   F                                                           G 
He might serve in heaven, might burn in hell
                   F                                                         C 
But he's no more wishes at the wishing well
                   F                                                 G 
I should feel compassion, I know I should
                 F                                                   C 
I don't know if his dying does any good
                       F                                                           G 
But he was good as gone when the building fell
                             F                                                               C 
Ah, when they ran out of wishes at the wishing well
         G                                             F       C 
Ah, lying on his back, eyes open wide
                 G                                                     F           C 
And the prick of the needle and the silent slide
                 G                                                   F                   C 
And the Press lined up, with their stories to tell
                         F                                                         G 
How there's no more wishes at the wishing well

     F                                                 G 
Today I rattled around this town
 F                                                           C 
Hands in my pockets, eyes cast down
                 F                                                     G 
And the air as still as the steeple bell
               F                                                       C 
It was dry as a bone at the wishing well
         F                                                     G 
The thunderheads tower over the town
                 F                                                               C 
I'll be warm and dry, when the sky falls down
               F                                                                   G 
And we might get lucky, but you never can tell
               F                                                       C 
It was dry as a bone at the wishing well
         G                                             F       C 
Ah, lying on his back, eyes open wide
                 G                                                     F           C 
And the prick of the needle and the silent slide
                 G                                                   F                   C 
And the Press lined up, with their stories to tell
                         F                                                         G 
How there's no more wishes at the wishing well

               F                                                         G 
On the morning news that brought me 'round
                           F                             C 
They put the Oklahoma bomber down
