Chords for "Wish Man" In-Studio Performance

[C#] _ [A#m] Yeah, this story this song came out of
My _ time in New Orleans.
We were on we were on a day off and we
Run tour we had a day off and I was just kind of getting some time by myself walking along
the Mississippi there and
I had a shirt that said wish _ on
[G#] On my chest just said wish some big letters and _
All the sudden I heard hey wish man, what's your wish and I looked over and there is this homeless guy sitting on a bench there and I
Walked over to him and I was like, I'm sorry, you know, what'd you say?
And he's like, well your shirt says wish man.
You know, what's your? _
What's if you could have one wish what would it be?
And I was like, oh man, I don't know, you know
And he was like, oh, it's okay.
Take your time.
I'm not going anywhere _
And I was like, yeah, I was trying to think of something good, you know, _ and then I was like man, you know
I don't know.
What would your wish be and he was like my wish would be I would never run out of whiskey
_ _ _ [C#] Man that's a good wish, you know and
And then he got kind of serious and he
_ he looked at me and he was like, you know, everybody's talking about saving the world and _
