Gordon Lightfoot - Sometimes I Wish


CAPO: 4th Fret




INTRO:: C  Cmaj7  G  Cmaj7  C

VERSE 1::
       Cmaj7      C       Cmaj7
Dreaming of a love I lost, the day the final bridge was crossed
  F         C        G
Sometimes I wish that I could just forget
    G7       C     F
But the memory lingers yet and it hangs around
Em         F         G Am
Leaving me low and leaving me down
   F      Am    G      Am
Everywhere I roam, there is nobody home
   F           Em           F
Even I should know, when it ain't my day, there is no other way

INTERLUDE:: G C  Cmaj7  G  G7  C


VERSE 2::
      Cmaj7      C        Cmaj7
I begin to wake up to, how wrong it was to cling to you
  F        C       G
Sometimes I wish to hold you to my heart
     G7       C    F
'Cause I can't keep us apart, forgiving you
    Em          F        G Am
Was the easiest thing that I ever could do
   F     Am    G       Am
Everywhere I go, there is no one I know
   F        Em        F
Even I can see, it's too late now to believe in a vow


INSTRUMENTAL:: G C G C G C F G C  F  G  C


VERSE 3::
       Cmaj7    C           Cmaj7
As I wander, I return, to days gone by, there's much to be learned
  F         C       G
Sometimes I wish that miracles could be
    G7       C    F
But at best I fail to see any happening
Em         F         G Am
Some gotta lose and some gotta win
   F      Am    G      Am
Everywhere I roam, there is nobody home
   F           Em           F       G Am
Even I should know when it ain't my day, there is no other way
   F     Am    G       Am
Everywhere I go, there is no one I know
   F        Em        F
Even I can see, it's too late now to believe in a vow
    G          C
