I Wish You Knew

F C        F
I wish you knew
F   G
How hard I've tried to tell you
G   F                                 C
How hard I've tried to get you off my mind
F C        F
I wish you knew
F   G
How hard I've tried to sleep at night
G       F                          C
Since I know that you're no longer mine
F             G               C
Since you let another beat my time


[Verse 1]
F  C                                               G
If only half the things were true you say about my heart
G    F                           G                C
Then I could have forgotten you, since we've been apart
F   C                                              G
You said I forced my lips to kiss you when we said goodbye
G                                                  C
You said I even forced the tears that came into my eyes


[Chorus]
F C        F
I wish you knew
F   G
How hard I've tried to tell you
G   F                                 C
How hard I've tried to get you off my mind
F C        F
I wish you knew
F   G
How hard I've tried to sleep at night
G       F                          C
Since I know that you're no longer mine
F             G               C
Since you let another beat my time

[Verse 2]
C                                                                  G
There's not a thought that could be worse than knowing that you're gone
F   G                                F         C
But in the picture in my mind you're never all alone
C                                                   F
You see me in another's arms the way I've been with you
F   G                                          C
The way I cry for you at night I only wish you knew


[Chorus]
F C        F
I wish you knew
F   G
How hard I've tried to tell you
G   F                                 C
How hard I've tried to get you off my mind
C          F
I wish you knew
F   G
How hard I've tried to sleep at night
G       F                          C
Since I know that you're no longer mine
F             G               C
Since you let another beat my time
