DOWN IN THE WELL
Bevis Frond
(Nick Saloman)
GGeorgBe, aCnother pint of winter warmer,
GSee Bthe Cbubbles rising, that's not right now,
GCans Band bCottles and the guilt of the disposer,
AI wGas never one for preaching,
AYou neGver know who you're reaching,
	    A  		      C     D(E)    G  C  
But now I seem to do it most of the time,
BDowCn in the Well	(x2)
BDowCn iGn the well I hold forth.
Do I stand beneath a falling building,
Like some 1920's window cleaner?
Just an architect created pancake.
I was never one for running,
Ther's always something coming,
Wherever you hide it always finds you asleep,
Down in the well I sweet dream.
Down in the well I remain.
The solo is dead simple... Just listen and play along in open G major
pentatonic. Then move up to the 12th (15th) fret for the high bit.
Easy!

Ther's always something coming,

Wherever you hide it always finds you asleep,

Down in the well I sweet dream.

Down in the well I remain.

The solo is dead simple... Just listen and play along in open G major

pentatonic. Then move up to the 12th (15th) fret for the high bit.
