Kevin Welch Wishing For You written by Kevin Welch
[C]Let it be said I'm a rational man
And I live in the usual w[F]ays
But I [C]dream mighty high for the shape that I'm in
And I always knew one of these d[F]ays
The stakes in this game would be [C]raised
I'm wishing for [F]you I'm wishing for [C]you
What else can I d[G]o [F]but keep wishing for [C]you
[C]Gold ain't so precious diamonds don't shine
And a mountain top ain't so [F]tall
[C]Life's just a way passing some time
Love's just a place where you [F]fall
And nothing else matters at a[C]ll
I'm wishing for [F]you I'm wishing for [C]you
What else can I d[G]o [F]but keep wishing for [C]you
[G]Well if my wishes were horses honey my h[F]orse could[C] run
[G]Faster and farther than [F]most any[C]one's
[G]If only you hadn't [F]just up and [C]gone
[C]And left me here [G]wishing for [C]you
INSTRUMENTAL
[C]Now you may never know what I had on the line
But I hope if someday you [F]do
You'll be [C]held in some arms just as gentle as mine
With a love just as strong and [F]true
That what I'm wishing for [C]you
[F] [C] [G] [F] [C]
I'm wishing for [F]you I'm wishing for [C]you
G F C
What else can I do but keep wishing for you
