Wish You Were Here Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][C]

[Verse 1]
[G]Take it slow, tell me all how you've gro[D]wn
Just for [C]me, could we all reminisce?
[G]Better yet, here's a pen, make a lis[D]t
Fill it [C]full with all the things I've missed

[Pre-chorus 1]
'Cause I can [D]barely drive past the school
with[Em]out stopping to think of you
And [C]how we used to act the fool
But [D]worst of all, I wish I'd called
at [Em]least a thousand [Bm]times or more
[C]Just to hear what I've been missing

[Chorus 1]
[G]If a picture is all that I hav[D]e
I can picture the times that we [C]won't get back
If I picture it now, it don't [Em]seem so bad
Either [D]way, I still wish you were [G]here
Don't say everything's meant to [D]be
'Cause you know it's not what I be[C]lieve
Can't help but think think it
should've been [Em]me
Either [D]way, I still wish you were [G]here
[D][C]

[Verse 2]
Thinking [G]back on the days
where we all used to [D]say
"I know [C]anywhere's better than here"
In the [G]back of the class
where we grew up too [D]fast
Living [C]life like there's nothin' to fear

[Pre-chorus 2]
But the [D]ice on the road,
driving [Em]home all alone
Singing [C]along to a song
from three summers ago
The one that [D]made you remember [Em]it
[Bm]Now I'll alway[C]s remember it
As the [D]song that your life

[Chorus 2]
[G](ended with)
If a picture is all that I [D]have
I can picture the times that we [C]won't get back
If I picture it now, it don't [Em]seem so bad
Either [D]way, I still wish you were [G]here
Don't say everything's meant to [D]be
'Cause you know it's not what I be[C]lieve
Can't help but think think it
should've been [Em]me
Either [D]way, I still wish you were

[Bridge 1]
[Em](here)
And they [C]say you're in a better place
(they [G]say you're in a better place)
But a better place is right here with [Em]me
Yeah, they [C]say you're in a better place
(they [D]say you're in a better place)

[Chorus 3]
Too bad it's not what I be[G]lieve
'Cause a picture is all that I [D]have
To remind me that you're never [C]comin' back
If I picture it now it just [Em]makes me sad
And right [D]now I just wish you were [G]here
Don't say everything's meant to [D]be
'Cause you know it's not what I be[C]lieve
Can't help but think it
should've been [Em]me
In the [D]end, I just wish you were

[Outro 1]
[G](here)
Yeah, they say you're in a better place
(they [D]say you're in a better place)
Either way, I still wish you were [C]here
Don't say you're in a better place
(they [Em]say you're in a better place)
In the [D]end, I just wish you were [G]here
