[E] I wish I was a willow tree leaning on a lazy [G]
breeze
[F] Moving like a [C] midnight train through rainy [Em] Georgia
I wish I was a grain of sand [D] laying in a baby's hand
Falling [C] like a diamond chain [G] into [Em] the ocean
A [C] willow tree is [D] strong [Em] enough to bend
[C] Never like the [D]
oak that [Bm] lives in the fear of the wind
[C] A grain of sand [D] is all I ever wanted to [Em] be
Lay [C] me down [D] and let that [Bm] water wash right over [B]
me
Wash over [Em]
me
I wish I was an old guitar [D] sitting in a beat-up car
[C]
Hidden ever too big far from here to [Em]
Texas
Then [C] I wouldn't be ashamed [D] to look up my old [Em]
friends
[C]
Devil be so [D] proud to see [B] me strung up again
[C]
A grain of sand is [D] all I ever wanted to [Em]
be
Lay [C]
me down [D] and let that water [B]
wash right over me
Wash over [Em] me
[Am] Nobody [D] wants you [Em] when you're down [G] and out
[Am] Nobody [D]
wants you [F] who knows your name
[Am] Just [D] another face lost [Em] in the crowded [C] street
In the [B] crowded street
Oh,
[Em]
[D]
[C]
[Em]
I wish I was a willow tree [D] leaning on a lazy breeze
[C] Moving like a midnight train through rainy [Em] Georgia
A [C] willow tree is [D] strong enough [Em] to bend
[C]
Never like the [D] oak that lives in [B]
the fear of the [C] wind
A grain of sand is [D] all I ever wanted to [Em]
be
Lay [C]
me down [D] and let that [B] water wash right over me
Wash [Em] over me
[D] Wash over me
[C] Wash over me
