Wish It Were You

F
When I saw you with her I
      Am
couldn't bear it yet I wonder why
         Bb                                F
shouldn't matter cause I'm with somebody new
     F
As I lay here next to him
   Am
I swear it can't be happening
    Bb                                     C
the memories race on by the ones of you and I
 Dm
the way you held her hand and kissed her face
 Bb
made me miss the times we did the same
             Am                              Bb  C
but doesn't matter, will never matter what I say

                      F
that could have been me
this would have been you
              Dm
how could a love so deep slip through
                Gm
the cracks in our hearts will remain
           Dm                            Bb  C
like the tears that are stained black and blue

               F
that should be me
I wish it were you
               Dm
but now theres nothing we can do
             Gm                    Dm
we had to give up, love just wasn't enough
     Bb               C
If I had to tell the truth
                F
I wish it were you

( F Am )

    F
Believe me when I say
     Am
I've tried to forget the day
        Bb
when we first laid eyes on each other
 C
never felt that way for another
    F
its not like you were superman
     Am
but your power over me was all I had
   Bb                            C
I tell myself to stop and breathe or else
these thoughts take over me

Dm
Sometimes I wish we had a chance
Bb
just one more kiss or one more dance
           Am                                Bb  C
but doesn't matter, will never matter what I say


                      F
that could have been me
this would have been you
              Dm
how could a love so deep slip through
                Gm
the cracks in our hearts will remain
           Dm                            Bb  C
like the tears that are stained black and blue

               F
that should be me
I wish it were you
               Dm
but now theres nothing we can do
             Gm                    Dm
we had to give up, love just wasn't enough
     Bb               C
If I had to tell the truth
                F
I wish it were you


  Bb         C               Dm              Bb
It hurts to know she has you now cause I let go
  Bb         C               Dm            Bb
replay the past holding on to all thats left
  Bb          C
can't help it been selfish
    Dm              Bb
how'd love end like this?


      Eb                      Bb   C
Every time I close my eyes at night
               F             Am
I think about me laying with you
                Dm    Am                    Bb       C
but it doesn't matter now, I've got nothing else to lose


                      F
that could have been me
this would have been you
              Dm
how could a love so deep slip through
                Gm
the cracks in our hearts will remain
           Dm                            Bb  C
like the tears that are stained black and blue

               F
that should be me
I wish it were you
               Dm
but now theres nothing we can do
             Gm                    Dm
we had to give up, love just wasn't enough
     Bb               C
If I had to tell the truth
                F
I wish it were you
