Lyrics & chords
[Verse 1] [C]well, I wish I had button eyes and a red felt [F]nose [G]shaggy cotton skin and just one set of [C]clothes Sittin' on a shelf in a local department [F]store With [G]no dreams to dream and nothin' to be sorry for [C] [Verse 2] I wish I was a teddy [F]bear Nor living, nor [G]loving, nor going [C]nowhere I wish I was a teddy [F]bear And I [C]wish that I never had [G]fallen in love with [C]you [Verse 3] I [C]wish I had a wooden heart and a sawdust [F]mind Then your [G]memory wouldn't come around hurtin' all [C]the time With a sewed-on smile smile and a painted twinkle in my [F]eye Then I nev[G]er would've ever had to learn how to cry [C] [Verse 4] I wish I was a teddy [F]bear Nor living, nor [G]loving, nor going [C]nowhere I wish I was a teddy [F]bear And I [C]wish that I never had [G]fallen in love with [C]you [Verse 5] I [D]wish I had a string you could pull that would make me [G]say [A]What you wanna hear from me to make you [D]stay Then I'd know every time I spoke the words [G]were right And [A]no one would know what a mess I've made in my life [D] [Verse 6] I wish I was a teddy [G]bear Nor living, nor [A]loving, nor going [D]nowhere I wish I was a teddy [G]bear And I [D]wish that I never had [A]fallen in love with [D]you [Verse 7] I wish I [D]was a teddy [G]bear Nor living, [A]nor loving, nor going [D]nowhere I wish I was (I wish I was) a teddy bear
