Chords for I Wish by Tom MacDonald Lyrics

[G] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ [D]
I wish I wasn't fat.
I wish I [Bm] wasn't gay.
I wish I wasn't black.
[A] I wish that I was brave.
I wish I wish I wish with every candle [E] on the cake that I could quit doing these drugs but I can't [Am] and I'm afraid.
I wish [G] that I was smart.
I wish that I was [Em] rich.
I wish it wasn't hard [G] for me to grow up and forgive.
I [A] wish that I could help.
I [E] wish I wasn't sick.
I wish I was Tom [D] McDonald.
I'd be just like him.
_ I wish I wasn't sober.
I miss it when the party wasn't over.
Happiness was right around the corner.
Every [A] single night was [D] like the best one of our lives.
[A] Now we're older.
The good old days are out of reach.
I wish that they were [D] closer.
I wish I wasn't [G] anxious and I wish I could fast forward and I wish that I could rewind but they don't make that [D] controller.
I wish the nights were longer and I wish the days were shorter and I wish that I could sleep enough to maintain my composure.
I feel crazy.
I wish that I was normal.
I wish that I could kill myself but also be immortal.
Take me [F#m] to the oracle.
I heard that time is borrowed.
Can you give me back my yesterdays?
I'll give you my tomorrows.
Forget [G] all of my morals and just live like I cannot [D] remember sorrow.
Before I loved the tattoos and the cornrows.
I was different.
I was happy.
I was calmer.
I was [Bm] young and full of [E] hormones.
Now [D] I'm wishing for a time machine.
I'd step into that portal and [C#m] be gone.
[D] I wish those shooting stars were worth a satellite.
Maybe they were too far.
Hey, Oona!
_ [A] _ [F#m] I've told a [D]
[Em] million [D] dandelions.
Now they don't [F#m] go in my yard.
[D] Hey, Oona!
I wish I didn't care about the day that I'd be buried.
Used to live like I was ready for it.
Always in a hurry.
[A] Now I'm worried.
All my [Dm] memories are blurry.
[E] I'm just barely turning 30 [A] and the voices in my head are trying to hurt me.
The [D] choices that I made make me feel [G] dirty.
I was 25 or 13.
I was smoking with the seniors, drinking beer and getting [A] flirty.
Now that Ativan ain't [D] working, I need something even stronger.
Give me childhood, my mother, and my father, and my sister, and a Christmas.
To make up for all the recent ones I'm missing while I'm touring the country for a living.
Give [F#m] me a hug and a Nintendo and a toy box in the closet.
Give me everything I wish I had.
Oh wait, I think I [G] got it.
I'm a rapper like I always promised them I would [D] accomplish.
This is awesome, man.
I wish I had a friend to tell.
I call him and I wonder if I jump from here if I'd survive the bottom.
And would everyone believe me if I told them I had fallen?
I'm a jump.
I wish I was shooting stars or were they satellites?
Maybe they went too far.
Hey, who's not a [G] _
_ _ _ [A] _ [D] [Em] million [D] dandelions?
Now they don't [F#m] grow in my yard.
[D] _ _ _
I wish we were kids again before everything was on Instagram.
Things [B] were so simple then.
[F#m] Me, my tree, Ford, all [D] of my friends.
Way back when on Beaver Drive.
When the floor was lava, I could fly.
Hey, oh, I wish I was big like [F#m] them.
Never thought I'd want to be [D] a kid again.
_ _ I wish I was shooting stars or were they [A] satellites?
Maybe they went [D] too far.
Hey, who's not a [G] _ _ _ [D] _ _
[A] million dandelions?
Now [D] they don't grow in my [A] yard.
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ Hey, [D] who's not a [G] _ _ [D] million _ _ _ dandelions?
Now they don't grow in my yard.
