James Keelaghan - I Would I Were
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: G Am Bm G C G Am Bm G C
G Am G C
I would I were a robin's song borne upon the wind
G Am G C
Lilting light through morning bright, soaring from the limb
D C D C
And if I were that robin's song, I'd soar without delay
G Am G C
And be the first thing that you hear as you begin your day
INTERLUDE: G Am Bm G C (2x)
G Am G C
I wish the Northern Lights were of a fabric apprehended
G Am G C
That from these earthbound human hands, those lights could be suspended
D C D C
I wish the northern lights were mine to hem and sew and weave
G Am G C
I'd make a cloak for you to wear to keep you from the breeze
BRIDGE:
Em Am
Oh___, all of the questions
D Em
All of the stars in the sky
Am
Oh___, never the answers
D E7
Always the wondering why

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