G D/F#
You’re so far away
Em
Why couldn’t you stay,
C
‘cause I need you now
G D/F#
But I hold on to you,
Em
‘cause I feel that it’s true
C
Do you feel it too
D
Tell me babe, tell me why
G C
I wish I were a swallow,
G D
then I’d fly to you
Em C
I wish I were a swallow,
G D
then I’d be with you
G D/F#
I’d watch you all day
Em
And at night when you pray,
C
I’d pray with you
G D/F#
And in the morning you’d wake,
Em
as I’d sing you a tune,
C
then you’d see me too
D
Oh, I’m only dreaming, why
G C
I wish I were a swallow,
G D
then I’d fly to you
Em C
I wish I were a swallow,
G D
then I’d be with you
G D
I’m your dream
Em C
Don’t be shy
G D
Spread your wings,
Em C
then you’ll fly
G D/F#
But I’ll wait for the day,
Em
when you come back to stay
C
‘Cause I need you babe
D
See me crying, why
G C
I wish I were a swallow,
G D
then I’d fly to you
Em C
I wish I were a swallow,
G D
then I’d be with you
Em C
I wish I were a swallow,
G D
then I’d fly to you
Em C
I wish I were a swallow,
G D
Then I’d be with you
G
Ooh ooh ooh
