The Well Of Loneliness

E    A    E    A    E    A    E    A

[Verse 1]

E               B                     D                  B
You sit still inside a well where you wish all will be well
E               B                D                 B
You're silently dreaming what no tongue can ever tell
E                       A           E                       A
This is the well of loneliness, oh, this is the well of loneliness
    E                A                E                    A
And oh, of broken promises, where you have decided nothing changes
E              B                      D                B
I once thought fame and romance could drag me out of hell
    E                      B             D                 B
But they have only chained me here, in a lifelike prison cell

[Bridge]

E                 G#m      A
They are many, we are few
E                        G#m     A
There's not much that we can do

[Chorus]

E     A
 In a well of no hoping
E        A
 There's no point in hoping
E     A                             E                         A
 In a well of no hoping, there's no hope, there's no point in hoping

[Instrumental]

E    B    D    B    E    B    D    B

[Verse 2]

E                       A           E                       A
This is the well of loneliness, oh, this is the well of loneliness
    E                A                E                    A
And oh, of broken promises, where you have decided nothing changes
E                B             D                   B
They promised me paradise if I fell under their spell
E                   B        D                B
Glazed-eyed passive citizens suit them very well
E                       A           E                       A
This is the well of loneliness, oh, this is the well of loneliness
    E                A                E                    A
And oh, of broken promises, where you have decided nothing changes
E                    B             D                  B
Could these sleepers ever wake, or have we come too late?
E                B                     D                   B
They have done such a good job on them down there in the well.

[Bridge]

E                 G#m      A
They are many, we are few (I see no way up, I see no way out)
E                        G#m     A
There's not much that we can do (I see no way up, I see no way out)

[Chorus]

E     A
 In a well of no hoping
E        A
 There's no point in hoping
E     A                             E                         A
 In a well of no hoping, there's no hope, there's no point in hoping
E     A                             E                         A
 In a well of no hoping, there's no hope, there's no point in hoping
