Verse 1
FF
Dear friend of my mine
Bb majorBb
The Weather's fine
FF
Today, I saw some ruins
Bb majorBb
Of the Roman world's decline
FF
And I climbed all those Spanish stairs
Bb majorBb
You've heard of them no doubt
C majorC
But Rome has lost its glory
G minorGm A minorAm Bb majorBb D#D#
I don't know what it's about
Chorus 1
FF
I wish you were here
When the shadows fall
Bb majorBb
And the rushing traffic's still
FF
I wish you were here
and the bells are ringing
Bb majorBb
On the seven hills
FF C majorC
I make my way to a small cafe
G minorGm A minorAm Bb majorBb D#D#
I wonder what you did today
FF
I Wish you were here
Vesre2
FF
Dear one at home
Bb majorBb
I just flew in from Rome
FF
And Paris is a postcard
Bb majorBb
All decked out in Kodachrome
FF
And so, I climbed the Eiffel Tower
Bb majorBb
And I prayed at Notre Dame
C majorC
But I just can't find the romance
G minorGm A minorAm Bb majorBb D#D#
And I wonder why I came
Chorus 2
FF
I wish you were here
On the Champs-Elysees
Bb majorBb
Lovers walk hand in hand
FF
I wish you were here
They take one look at me
Bb majorBb
And they seem to understand
FF C majorC
This city of light is a lovely site
G minorGm A minorAm Bb majorBb D#D#
The first bright star I see tonight
FF
Wish you were here
Bridge
A minorAm FF A minorAm
Now, I write this on the plane
FF G minorGm
and I'm drinking cheap champagne
And wondering how
Bb majorBb C majorC
Two people got so far apart
(no chord) FF
I wish you were here
Outro
Here in London
Bb majorBb
Where the rain the pouring down
FF
I wish you were here
On this airplane
Bb majorBb
Headed back to LA Town
FF C majorC
I'll never leave you alone again
G minorGm A minorAm Bb majorBb D#D#
I'm coming home but until then
Bb majorBb FF
I Wish you were here
Bb majorBb
I wish you were here
FF
I Wish you were here
Bb majorBb
I wish you were here
FF
I wish you were here
Bb majorBb
I wish you were here
FF
I wish you were here
