Wishing I Was There - Natalie Imbruglia
This is tabbed at CAPO 1 to give it a deeper feeling and ease of playing
without having to tune-down your guitar. Previous versions were good but
missed the D/add9 in the progression and the ending chorus of the
“Wishing I” ‘s. Hope this works for you.
CAPO 1
/add9: XX4230
Intro: /add9 (x2)
Verse 1:
/add9
Take your hand and place it in my pocket
/add9
Flick your eyes back in their sockets
Put those thoughts away sometimes they're much too loud
/add9
I'll take a breath and cradle your sweet head
Should've stayed at home in bed
Put that face away I'm melting for you
Pre-Chorus:
I know I get cold
Cause I can't leave things well alone
Understand I'm accident prone
Me I'll get free
(stop)
Every night the moon is mine
Chorus:
(NC)
But when the morning comes
/add9
Don't say you love me
Don't say you need me
I really don't think that's fair
Boy I'm not so dumb
/add9
But when you leave me
I'll be wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there
Verse 2:
I dreamt about another girl in bed with you
You just laughed and smiled
Denied the proof
We're fine till I think of the problem
I wish it made sense
Like a joke that no one gets
It's a life without regret
I want to feel that way, forever and ever
Pre-Chorus:
I know I get cold
Cause I can't leave things well alone
Understand I'm accident prone
Me I'll get free
(stop)
Every night the moon is mine
Chorus:
(NC)
But when the morning comes
/add9
Don't say you love me
Don't say you need me
I really don't think that's fair
Boy I'm not so dumb
/add9
But when you leave me
I'll be wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there
/add9
Wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there
Wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there with you
/add9
Wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there
Wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there with you
Ending Chorus:
/add9
Don't say you love me
Don't say you need me
I really don't think that's fair
Boy I'm not so dumb
/add9
But when you leave me
I'll be wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there
/add9
Wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there
Wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there with you
/add9
Wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there
Wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there with you
