I wish you freedom, I wish peace, I wish you nights of stars

A D Dm
that beckon you to sleep. I wish you heatache that makes

D D Dm Dm A
you more of a man, I wish I could be there, but I can't.

D A 
I wish you places, that sit so still, where people never ever 

D A D 
change and never ever will. I wish I could hold you and 

Dm D D Dm Dm A 
make you understand, I wish I could be there but I can't.

E D D E
Be good for your momma, cuz she'll need a hand to hold,

E D D E
and boy she loves you, more than you'll ever know.

D E D
There are rhymes and there are reasons, and times when

E F G A
nothing stayed the same, but you know my love still remains.

D A D
I wish you wisdom, I wish you years, I wish you armies

A D Dm
to conquer all your fears. I wish you courage for all that 

D D Dm Dm A
life demands, I wish I could be there, but I can't.


E D D E
Be good for your momma, cuz she'll need a hand to hold,

E D D E
and boy she loves you, more than you'll ever know.

D E D
There are rhymes and there are reasons, and times when

E F G A
nothing stayed the same, but you know my love still remains.

D A
I wish we were together, I wish I was home, I wish there 

D A D
was nights when I was never alone. I know I've said it, but

Dm D D Dm Dm A
I'll say it once again, I wish I could be there, but I can't...
