I Wish Chords by R.Kelly

[D#m] _ [C#] _ _ _ [F#] Taverie city, In burry [C#] hood [G#] and every [A#m] block, get on [C#] _
[D#m] America..
Roman [C#] through the hood, just stop by and say what's up,
and let you know you baby boy ain't doin so [F#] tough,
[C#] even though you'd passed go on for long years, still wakin' up late at night cryin [D#m] tears
[C#] just think about those days you used to talk to [F#] me,
smilin while i'm [C#] sippin on his [D#m] _ [C#] _ hennessy's
I wish that I could go back on how rich we would be
Forget about this, it was like a [F#] fantasy
Hey, now [C#] you hear my songs already, it was bang
Oh, I can't [F#] believe my [C#] ears and what everybody's [D#m] saying
[C#] Boy, I tell you, folks don't know the half
I would give it all up just to take one [D#m] ride With [C#] you
How I used to kick it on the front porch With [F#] you
How I used to lay [C#] back and [F#] smoke weed With [C#] you
All the little basement party joints we do
Now I'm just missing you
[D#m] How I [C#] wish that I could [A#m] hold you now
Oh, [F#] how I wish that I could touch you now
[D#m] Oh, [F#] how I wish [C#] that I could talk to you
Be [F#] with you [C#] somehow I [D#m] know
[C#] I know you're in a [A#m] better place
Oh, I [F#] know
Even though I can't [C#] see your [D#m] face
[C#] I know you're smiling down on me
[F#] Saying [G#m] everything's [C#] okay
[D#m] _ [C#] _ And if I make [F#] it out this love time
I'll see [D#m] you again someday
[C#] Ever _ _ _ _ _
[D#m] [C#] since this money come, it's been nothing but stress
[F#] Sometimes I wish [C#] that I could just trade in my [D#m] success
[C#] Y'all look at me and say, boy, you've been blessed
But y'all don't see the inside of my [D#m] unhappiness
[C#] Man, I swear this shit gets heavy like a ton
That's why [B] you hear me shooting [C#] this real shit off like a [D#m] gun
[C#] I wonder how my friends would treat me now
If I [B] wasn't iced up, [C#] would have been in a house
[D#m] That's why [C#] fake-ass niggas get fake-ass digits
And [B] fake-ass players get a [C#] real bad [F#] hatin'
[C#] Honey, love goes platinum and y'all ass come around
But y'all don't wanna raise the roof until my shit is [F#] going down
I [C#] can't believe my songs already overspang
Oh, I can't [F#] believe my [C#] ears and what everybody's [D#m] saying
[C#] Boy, I tell you, folks don't know the [A#m] half
[B] I would do [F#m] all of just [C#] to take one [F#] ride With you
How I used to hoop [C#] off in the [A#m] tournament With [B] you
How I used to club [C#] hop on [D#m] weekends With you
Your family [C#] called the morning of a [F#] tragic end
[C#] Damn, my [D#m] condolences
[C#] I wish that I could [A#m] hold you now
[F#] I wish that I could touch you [D#m] now
[F#] I wish [C#] that I could talk to you
[F#] Be with you [C#] somehow
Oh, [D#m] I know, [C#] yeah
I know you're in a [A#m] better place
[F#] Even though I can't [C#] see your [D#m] face
I [C#] know you're smiling down on me
[A#m] _ [G#m] And everything's [C#] okay
[D#m] _ [C#] _ And if I make [F#] it in this world, I'll see you again [D#m] someday
[C#] _ Voices _ _ _ _
[F#] [C#] in my head be telling me to come to church
Said the Lord is the only way for you to stop the [D#m] hurt
[C#] Dreaming of windows black tinted like a hearse
Waking up for life sometimes [D#m] seems [C#] worse
And all I ever wanted is to be a better man
And I try to keep it [D#m] real with my [C#] homies, man
Want me to save the world, I don't understand
How did I become the leader [D#m] of a [C#] billion players?
Now you've lost all hope, it's already your mistake
Oh, I can't believe my ears and what everybody's [D#m] saying
[C#] Boy, I tell you folks don't know the highs
I would give it all up just to take one [F#] ride With [C#] you
How I used to street perform on Friday With [F#] you
And how I'd go to church [C#] on Easter [F#] Sunday With [C#] you
Instead of y'all throwing them stones at [G#m] me
[F#] [C#] Somebody pray [D#m] for me
Oh, [C#] shit, I can [A#m] hold you now
Oh, [F#] shit, I can touch you now
[D#m] Oh, [F#] shit, [C#] I can talk to [A#m] you
[B] Even if [C#] somehow
Still [D#m] I [C#] know
I know you're in a [A#m] better place
In a better [F#] place
But I can't see your face
[D#m] Oh, I'm [C#] smiling down on you
[A#m] Saying [B] everything's [C#] okay
All [D#m] of my [C#] homies
Shit, I can hold you now
[F#] Oh, shit, I can touch you now
[D#m] [F#] Right now
[C#] Oh, shit, I can talk to [A#m] you
Be [B] with you Somehow
[C#]
[D#m] Somehow I [C#] know
I know you're in a better place
[F#] In a better place
But I can't [D#m] see your face
See your [C#] face
But I'm smiling down on you
[F#] Saying [C#] everything's okay
[D#m] All of my [C#] homies
Shit, I can hold you now
[F#] Oh, my, my, my, my, my
Shit, I can [D#m] touch you now
That's my [F#] spirit, baby
Oh, [C#] shit, I can talk to you
On [F#] morning break
[B] _ [C#] Somehow
Come on [D#m] and bring [C#] my hand
Come [F#] on and be my friend
[D#m] Come on and bring [C#] my hand
Come on [F#] and bring my hand _ _
[D#m] _ [C#] _ _ [A#m] _ _ [F#] _ _ _
[D#m] _ [C#] _ _ _ [A#m] _ _ [F#] _ _
