Chords for Gavin's Song by Marc Broussard

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ I wish you freedom, _ _ I wish you [Ab] peace
I wish [Db] you nights of stars that beckon you [Ab] to sleep _
I wish you [Fm] heartache [Eb] that leaves you more [Db] of a man
_ _ I wish I could be [Fm] there, _ but I can't
_ [Ab] I wish you [Db] places that sit [Ab] so still
But [Db] people will never ever change, never [Ab] ever will
_ _ I wish I [Fm] could hold you [Bb]
and make you [Db] understand
_ _ [Fm] I wish [Bbm] I could be [Fm] there, _ but I can't
_ [Ab]
Be good [Cm] for your [Db] mama, _ [Fm] cause she'll need a hand to [Eb] hold
And boy, she [Cm] _ [Db] loves you _ [Fm] more than you'll ever [Bb] _ know
There [Bbm] are rhymes and there are [Cm] reasons
[Bbm] And times when nothing [Cm] stayed the same
But [Dbm] you know [Gb] my love still [Dbm] remains
I [Db] wish you wisdom, _ _ [Ab] I wish you years
I wish [Db] you armies to conquer [Ab] all your fears
I wish you [Fm] courage [Eb] for all that life [Fm] demands
_ I wish [Bbm] I could be [Fm] there, _ but I can't
_ [Ab]
Be good [Cm] for your _ [Db] mama, [Fm] cause she'll need a hand [Eb] to hold
[Cm] And boy, she [Db] loves you _ [Fm] more than you'll ever [Bb] know
_ [Bbm] There are rhymes and there are [Cm] reasons
[Bbm] And times when nothing [Cm] stayed the same
[Dbm] But you know [Gb] my love still [Dbm] _ remains
I wish [Db] we were [Db] together, _ _ [Ab] I wish I was home
I wish there were nights where I was never [Ab]
alone
_ I know [Fm] I've said it, [Eb] but I'll say it [Db] once again
_ I [Bbm] wish I could be there, _ but I [Db] can't
_ [Ab] _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _
