R.E.M. - Boy In The Well: chords

Em                     F#m
Look at this, it's me, walking away
 D                    C
Look at you drowning, on display
Em                          F#m
Every time I've dropped by, I've tried to say
     D
The water is rising
     C             Am
You don't want to stay

It's that sinking feeling,
you know what it's bringing on
You might as well say it
I see it, I feel it, this town is going wrong
It's turning away

Chorus:
G                A#sus2          C
You wanted me to be someone that I could never be
G                  A#sus2     C
My new friends are offering things I've never dreamed
      G
It's beautiful
    A#sus2            C      A#sus2  Am
I'd like for them to take me on

The track mall gang went off on the Tennessee goth
A lunar moth, you chrysalis and flail
The water is rising, you try to rappel
A rousing cheer for the boy in the well

It's that sinking feeling,
you know what it's bringing on
You might as well say it
I see it, I feel it, this town is going wrong
It's turning away

Chorus

Here is where I look back, here is where you fell
This is where I got up, shaking off my tail
This is where your rope trick started to look stale
A Greyhound pass for the boy in the well

It's that sinking feeling,
you know what it's bringing on
You might as well say it
I see it, I feel it, this town is going wrong
It's turning away
