[Fm] [Eb] [Dm] [Cm]
[C] [Fm]
[Eb] [Dm] [Cm]
[C] [Fm]
[Eb] [F] [Cm]
[C] [Fm]
[Eb] [Dm] [Cm]
[C] [Fm] By the time you get this ladder, [Bb] I [Dm] might be [Cm] doing better
It's kinda hard trying to survive in all this crazy [Fm] weather
Everybody wants my number, [Eb] [F] everybody's [Cm] calling my name
But in the midst of all of this I can [C] still hear you [Fm] say
Oh, son, walk up, [Bb] I [Dm] can't [Cm] straighten your path
You don't want one of them good [Fm] jobs to pass you by
No, don't take no [Eb] floor, [F] I'm [Cm] watching you
And now that you're gone it still feels [C] like you do
[Fm] I wish, I [Cm] wish you [Bb] were [Eb] here
To see [C] the things [Fm] I've done
I [Eb] [F] wish [Cm] you were here
You'd be so [C] proud of [Fm] your son
I [Cm] wish you were here
To sell [C] the weight [Fm] beneath you
[Eb] I [F] wish [Cm] you were here
[E] [Fm] Now all these people ask me, is it [Eb] lonely at [F] the [Gm] top
[Eb] Or do I find [Cm] comfort in all the [C] things I've got
[Fm] Well, these cars keep me moving, these [Bb] flames [F] keep me [Cm] high
A million dollar home, but I'm barely getting back [Fm] home
I miss our cars, [Bb] one thing you used to [Cm] say
One thing's got [F] hollowed out, it don't [C] mean you need to break
[Fm] And then those walls, [Gm] just the simple [Eb] things
We still do all of [Cm] this, but only in my [Bbm] dreams
[Ab] I wish, I [Eb] [F] wish [Cm] you were here
With me, to see [C] the [Fm] things I've done
I [Cm] wish, you would be so proud of [Fm] your son
I [Eb] [Dm] wish [Cm] you were here
To sell [Em] the [Fm] weight beneath you
I [Cm] [F] wish [Cm] you were here
But sometimes [C] I wonder
[Fm] Would you [Cm] still be here with me
I wish you would've waited a couple more years [C] for you to [Fm] see
I'm trying to stay [Bb] strong, [Dm] barely holding [Cm] on
I don't know if I'll see you again, but for right [C] now, bless and [Fm] feed
And when I get to heaven, [Eb] first thing [F] they'll say [Cm] to me
Tell me, have you seen Essel [C] [Fm] Mowretalli
Find out where you are, [Eb] run [F] into [Cm] your arms
Wrap your wings around me and whisper in [C] my ear
[Fm] Well done, [Eb] well, [Gm] [Cm] well done my son
Well done, [C] well done
[Fm]
I [Eb] [F] wish [Cm] you were here
You'd be so [C] proud of [Fm] your son
[Eb] I [F] wish [Cm] you were here
To sell [C] the weight [Fm] beneath you
[Eb] I [F] wish [Cm] you were here
[C] [Fm]
[Eb] [F] [Gm] [Eb]
[F] [C] [Fm]
