I Wish You Could Be Here

Tom: C

D

[Verse]
D
Looking from my window
       Cmaj7
On the freshly fallen snow
   D
It sparkles as it tumbles
 Cmaj7
Upon the street below
    Bm
The crackle of the fire
   C
Is laughing in my ear
    G
The room is warm and sleepy
      C        G        F      A
And I wish you could be here

[Replay the intro here]


[Verse]
D
Somedays in this town
              Cmaj7
There's not a lot for me to do
          D
I've been listening to some records
       Cmaj7
And my thoughts return to you
  Bm
I tried to read the paper
        C
But the words aren't very clear
     G
Oh I know there's something missing
      C        G        F      A
And I wish you could be here (I wish you could be here)

[Verse]
       D
I keep listening for your footsteps
        Cmaj7
Or your key turned in the door
  D
I sure could use your company
          Cmaj7
But we've been through that before
  Bm
I think the winter's going to last
  C
A long time this year
         G
I've got lot's empty time to fill
      C        G        F       A      D
And I wish you could be here
