[Fm]
[Dm] [Bb] [Fm] I wish coffee made your teeth whiter, I wish porn was good for your brain,
I [D] wish artists didn't need money, I [Bb] wish [Fm] billionaires were less vain,
I wish cheese were not so expensive, I wish doing taxes was fun,
I [Dm] wish one-night stands were romantic, I [C] wish guys could cum more than [Fm] once,
I wish ice cream made you more healthy, I wish weed was good for your heart,
I [Dm] wish exercise were less [Fm] sweaty, I wish drinks were cheaper in bars,
I wish we could all be less racist, and I wish the Bible made sense,
I [Dm] wish phones were not so [Fm] addictive, and I wish we could have stayed friends,
when our never-meant-to-be relationship ended, all [Dm] the life we lived [Fm] in,
now we're strangers again, all the time we put in, all the things that we'd been,
I wish I had known what I wanted, I wish you had never got mean,
I [D] wish we had started off [Fm] honest, I wish I had made you feel seen,
I wish you were less narcissistic, I wish I had known how to help,
I [Dm] wish you could have seen what I loved in you, [Bb] instead of hating yourself,
I [Fm] wish I had met you in COVID, wasn't fucking up our whole lives,
I [Dm] wish both of us were less lonely, [Bb] from our months of staying inside,
[Fm] I wish I were more understanding, I wish you were way less intense,
[Dm] maybe then you could still [Fm] stand me, cause I wish we could have [Bb] stayed friends,
[Fm] when our never-meant-to-be relationship ended, all [Dm] the life we lived [Fm] in,
now we're strangers again, all the time we put in, all the things that we'd been,
[F]
and it isn't all your fault, but some of it is, and some of it's mine,
and some of it's just bad timing and shitty
[Fm] circumstances,
I wish Amazon were less evil, I wish climate change were a hoax,
wish I didn't have to be sad as fuck to write my funniest jokes,
I wish you would someday forgive me, I swear I was trying my best,
[Dm] and I know it wasn't an option, [F] but I wish we could have stayed friends,
when our never-meant-to-be relationship ended, [Dm] all the life we [Fm] lived in,
now we're strangers again, all the time we put in, all the things that we'd been,
[F] I just wish we could [Bbm] have stayed friends, [Fm] when our never-meant-to-be relationship ended,
[Dm] all the life we [Fm] lived in, now we're strangers again, all the time we put in, all the things that we'd been,
I just wish we could have stayed, just wish we could [Dm] have stayed.
