Gavins Song Tab

by Marc Broussard


This is a great song Marc wrote to his son.  I made a few changes to the previous tab
and think this sounds pretty good.  Thanks------Cnun     
          

                                                
I wish you freedom, I wish you peace, I wish you nights of stars

                                                  
that beckon you to sleep. I wish you heartache that leaves

                                                
you more of a man, I wish I could be there, but I can't.

                                                 
I wish you places, that sit so still, where people never ever 

                                           
change and never ever will. I wish I could hold you and 

                                                
make you understand, I wish I could be there but I can't.

                                                
Be good for your momma, cuz she'll need a hand to hold,

                                           
and boy she loves you, more than you'll ever know.

                                            
There are rhymes and there are reasons, and times when

                                                    
nothing stayed the same, but you know my love still remains.

                                              
I wish you wisdom, I wish you years, I wish you armies

                                                
to conquer all your fears. I wish you courage for all that 

                             		
life demands, I wish I could be there, but I can't.


                                                
Be good for your momma, cuz she'll need a hand to hold,

                                           
and boy she loves you, more than you'll ever know.

                                             
There are rhymes and there are reasons, and times when
     
                                                 
nothing stayed the same, but you know my love still remains.

                                     
I wish we were together, I wish I was home, I wish there 

                                              
were nights when I was never alone. I know I've said it, but

                                                       
I'll say it once again, I wish I could be there, but I can't...
