[A] I wish [E] I was smarter
I wish I [B] was stronger
I [C#m] wish I'd loved Jesus
The way [A] my wife does
I wish that it'd [E] been easier
Instead [C#m] of any [B] longer
I wish [C#m] I could've stood
Where you would've been [A] proud
But that won't happen [E] now
That won't happen [B] now
[E] There's [A] a whole lot of singing
That's [B] never gonna be heard
[C#m] Disappearing every day
Without [A] so much as a word [E] Somehow
I [A] think I broke the wings
[B] Off that little [C#m] songbird
She's never gonna fly
[A] To the top of the world
[E] To the top [B] of the world
[E] I don't [A] have to [E] answer
Any [B] of these questions
Don't [C#m] have no God to
Teach me [A] no lessons
I come home in [E] the evenings
And sit in [B] my chair
One night they called me [C#m] for supper
But I never [A] got up
I stayed [E] right there
In my [B] chair
[A] There's a whole lot of singing

[A] I wish I'd [E] have known
I wish I'd [B] have shown you
[C#m] All of the things I
Was [A] on the inside
But I pretend to be [E] sleeping
When you'd come in in [B] the morning
To [C#m] whisper goodbye and
Go to work in [A] the rain
Now I don't [E] know why
I don't know

We [B] just wanna be [C#m] heard
Disappearing every day
Without [A] so much as a word [E] Somehow
