I Wish Chords by R.Kelly

[Db] I wish, [Bbm] I wish, I wish, I wish,
To every city.
[Ebm] I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish, Every [Ab] hood.
I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish,
And every block,
[Db] Ghetto America.
I wish, [Ebm] I wish, I wish, I wish,
Roaming through the [Db] hood,
Just stopped by to say [Bbm] what's up.
And let you know your baby boy ain't doing [Ebm] so tough.
And even [Db] though you've passed going on for [Bbm] long years.
Still [Dbm] waking up late at night [Ebm] crying tears.
[Db] Just thinking about those days [Bbm] you used to talk to me.
Smiling while I'm sipping on [Ebm] this Hennessy.
And [Db] remember we'd brag [Bbm] on how rich we would be
[Ab] Forget about this, it was [Ebm] like a fantasy
And I knew he [Db] was wrong, he already [Bbm] was banged
Oh I can't believe my ears and what [Ebm] everybody's saying
[Db] Boy I tell you folks don't [Gb] know the half
I would give [Ab] it all up just to [Ebm] take one ride
It's you, [Db] how I used to kick in on [Bbm] the front porch
It's you, how I used to lay back [Ebm] and smoke weed
It's you, [Db] all the little basement party [Bbm] joints we do
[Dbm] Now I'm just missing [Ebm] you, how I wish
[Db] I wish that I could hold you [Bbm] now
I wish that I could touch you [Ebm] now
I [Gb] wish that I could talk to [Bbm] you, be with [Gb] you somehow
[Ebm] I know, I [Db] know you're in a better [Bbm] place
Even though I can't see your [Ebm] face
I [Db] know you're smiling down on [Bbm] me
Saying [B] everything's okay
[Ebm] _
_ [Db] _ And if I make it out this world, I'll see you [Ebm] again someday
_ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Ebm]
Ever since [Db] this money come, it's been nothing [Bbm] but stress
Sometimes I wish that I could just trade in [Ebm] my success
Y'all [Db] look at me and say, boy [Bbm] you've been blessed
But y'all [Dbm] don't see the inside of my [Ebm]
unhappiness
Man [Db] I swear this shit gets heavy like a ton
That's why you hear me shooting this real shit off [Ebm] like a gun
Mmm [Db] I wonder how my friends would treat me now
If I wasn't [Dbm] iced up, would've been in a [Ebm] house
That's why [Db] fake ass niggas get fake ass digits
And fake ass players get a real [Ebm] player hatin' em
Honey [Db] love goes platinum and y'all [Bbm] ass come around
But y'all [Dbm] don't wanna rake the roof until my shit [Ebm] is going down
I can't believe [Db] my song is already over [Gb] slain
Oh I can't believe my ears and what [Ebm] everybody's saying
[Db] Boy I tell you folks don't [Bbm] know the half
I would [Gb] give it all up just to [Ebm] take one ride
[Db] Now I used to hoop off in [Bbm] the tournament
Now I used to club hop [Ebm] on weekends
[Db] Your family calls the morning of [Bbm] a tragic end
[B] Damn, my [Ebm] condolences
I [Db] wish that I could hold you [Bbm] now
I wish that I could touch you [Ebm] now
I [Gb] wish that I could [Db] talk to you
Be with [Gb] you somehow
[Ebm] I know [Db] you're in a better place
Even broad can't see [Ebm] things
[Db] Boy you're smiling down on me
And [B] everything's [Ebm] okay
_ [Db] _ And if I'm making it this far
I'll see you [Ebm] again someday
[Db] _ _ [Gb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Ebm]
Voices [Db] in my head be telling me to [Bbm] come to church
Said the Lord [Dbm] is the only way for you to [Ebm] stop the hurt
[Db] Dreaming of windows black [Bbm] tinted like a hearse
[Dbm] Waking up to life [Ebm] sometimes seems worse
[Db] And all I ever wanted [Bbm] is to be a better man
And I try to keep [Ebm] it real with my homies [Db] man
Want me to save [Bbm] the world I don't [Dbm] understand
How did I become [Ebm] the leader of a billion men
Now you've got [Db] songs already over slain
Oh I can't believe my ears and what [Ebm] everybody's saying
[Db] Boy I tell you folks don't know the [Ab] half
I would give it all up just to take [Ebm] one ride
[Db] Now I used to street perform [Ab] on Friday
Now I'd go to church on [Ebm] Easter Sunday
[Db] Instead of y'all throwing them [Bbm] songs at me
[B] Somebody [Ebm] pray for me
I [Db] wish that I could hold you [Bbm] now
I wish that I could touch you [Ebm] now
I [Gb] wish that I could talk [Bbm] to you
Even [B] if somehow
[Ebm] Still I know
[Db] You're in a better place
Even [Ab] broad can't see your [Ebm] face
[Gb] Boy you're smiling down on [Bbm] me
I wish that [B] everything's okay
[Ebm] All of my [Db] homies
I wish that I could hold you [Gb] now
I wish that I could touch you [Ebm] now Right now
[Gb] I wish that I could talk to you
[Bbm] Even if [B] somehow
[Ebm] Somehow I know
[Db] You're in a better place
[Ab] Even broad can't see your [Ebm] face
[Gb] Boy you're smiling down on me
[Bbm] I wish that [B] everything's okay
[Ebm] I'm at the [Db] crossroads
Of _ [Gb] my, my, my, my life
[Ebm] I wish that [Gb] I could talk to you
[Bbm] Even if [B] somehow
[Ebm] _
[Db] I'm in a better place
[Gb] Even broad can't see [Ebm] your [Db] face
Boy you're smiling down on [Gb] me
I [B] wish that everything's okay
[Ebm] _
[Db] I wish that I could hold you [Bbm] now
I wish that I could touch you [Ebm] now
I [Db] wish that I could talk to [Bbm] you
Even [Gb] if somehow
[Ebm] _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _
