(Intro) C, E, F, G (2x)
C E F G
I wish I was a baby bear sleeping in the brown
C E F G
winter grass in April, while the sun was going down
C E F G
I wish my shoes were empty and I was still in bed
F C E Am
with you there beside me with your dreams inside your head
F C E Am
I wish the world would do what I want it to
F C G C, E, F, G, C, E, F, G
and I wish the wind would blow me, blow me back to you
C E F G
Well I wish your mom was ugly and your dad was ugly too
C E F G
Then they couldn’t have a girl to be as beautiful as you
C E F G
I wish I was a tightrope walker with legs made out of gold
F C E Am
I’d hold you in my golden legs and never let you go
F C E Am
I wish the world would do what I want it to
F C G C, E, F, G, C, E, F, G
and I wish the wind would blow me, blow me back to you
C E F G
Well I wish I could see Jesus shining in the sky
C E F G
and he could let me know that everything will be all right
C E F G
I wish I knew that God’s love was all I’d ever need
F C E Am
I’d cut my candyteeth for fun and let the good times bleed
F C E Am
Oh I wish the world would do what I want it to
F C E Am
Wish the world would do what I want it to
F C G C
and I wish the wind would blow me, blow me back to you
