James Keelaghan - I Would I Were


CAPO: 2nd Fret


INTRO: G+G  A minorAm B minorBm G+G C majorC G+G  A minorAm B minorBm G+G C majorC

 G+G             A minorAm   G+G    C majorC
I would I were a robin's song borne upon the wind
G+G                  A minorAm    G+G    C majorC
Lilting light through morning bright, soaring from the limb
  D MajorD       C majorC         D MajorD        C majorC
And if I were that robin's song, I'd soar without delay
  G+G                  A minorAm  G+G    C majorC
And be the first thing that you hear as you begin your day

INTERLUDE: G+G  A minorAm B minorBm G+G C majorC (2x)


 G+G                 A minorAm   G+G  C majorC
I wish the Northern Lights were of a fabric apprehended
   G+G                    A minorAm      G+G   C majorC
That from these earthbound human hands, those lights could be suspended
 D MajorD         C majorC          D MajorD         C majorC
I wish the northern lights were mine to hem and sew and weave
  G+G                A minorAm    G+G    C majorC
I'd make a cloak for you to wear to keep you from the breeze


BRIDGE:
E minorEm   A minorAm
Oh___, all of the questions
D MajorD            E minorEm
All of the stars in the sky
    A minorAm
Oh___, never the answers
D MajorD          E7E7
Always the wondering why


         ## Key Change - Up 2 Semitones ##


 A augmentedA                   B minorBm          D MajorD
I wish my hand could touch the place within your heart that's hidden
  A augmentedA                 B minorBm       D MajorD
And go to you, as if some ghost, that by you had been bidden
  E MajorE          D MajorD        E MajorE       D MajorD
And though this world is touch and go, I cannot but believe
  A augmentedA                  B minorBm         D MajorD
Of all the things that touch us first, love is the last to leave
  A augmentedA                  B minorBm  D MajorD
