If Wishes Were Horses Tab

by Lucinda Williams


Capo fret 1

                       
Why’d I turn on you and say those things?

I didn’t mean ‘em
                                
Wish you were bringin’ your love back to me

Instead of leavin’


But if
                             
Wishes were horses, I’d have a ranch
                           
Come on and give me another chance

           
Come on and give me
           
Come on and give me
           
Come on and give me
        
Another chance

                                     
We used to drive through the canyons down to where

the land meets the sea
                   
I never knew what I had back there

Till you went away from me

But if
                             
Wishes were horses, I’d have a ranch
                           
Come on and give me another chance

           
Come on and give me
           
Come on and give me
           
Come on and give me
        
Another chance

(play verse and refrain through)

                        
I was scared of standing on the edge

Darkness lookin’ in
                   
I hurt you bad and now I wish

We could begin again


But if
                             
Wishes were horses, I’d have a ranch
                           
Come on and give me another chance

           
Come on and give me
           
Come on and give me
           
Come on and give me
        
Another chance
                           
Wish I could turn a sad and blue, blue day

Into something good
                            
Wish I could somehow make it go away

I wish you understood.


That if
                             
Wishes were horses, I’d have a ranch
                           
Come on and give me another chance

           
Come on and give me
           
Come on and give me
           
Come on and give me
        
Another chance

           
Come on and give me
           
Come on and give me
           
Come on and give me
        
Another chance
