Come To The Well

Friends, my objective here and with all the Vannelli charts
I have submitted is to have posted an accurate transcription
of his music for all of us to enjoy. If anyone feels they have a
better chord, note, passage, lyric--please feel
free to contact me at the Email address below,
and the necessary changes will be made! Since I am
a member of this site, it is possible for me to edit
 any of these charts.


..Barely two minutes in length, this pretty number does quite a number of things.
Although fairly slow in tempo--it contains plenty of very quick chord changes--
often on each syllable-- many of which could easily be left out, without really comprimising the performance--but fun to include if you can!
 Some melody notes are added in the instrumental passages..

individual notes:
c4: middle C, and notes above in that octave...
c5: C above middle C
c3: C below middle C  etc.
numbers behind notes will only be indicated when notes enter another octave
