Chords for Rodney Crowell - Things I Wish I'd Said ( + lyrics 1989)

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G#] _
[C#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
You lay there fighting for each breath [F#] while
angels hovered around your bed
With open [C#] arms like God's own smile
[A#m] They led you to [G#] the light _ _
[C#] What a battle you have won _
[F#] And now your journey has begun to
To the land [C#] where spirits fly [G#] _ and your soul [C#] will never die _
[F#] Travel _ [C#] lightly in my heart _
[F#] You and I [C#] will never part
[F#] Far beyond [C#] this world we see _
[G#] There's a place [C#] for you and me _
[A#m] And I think [G#] my lucky star _
[F#] We had a chance [C#] to heal our scars _
[F#] Now I don't have [C#] to hang my head _
[G#] Over things [C#] I wish I said
[A#m] _ _ _ _ [G#] _ _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ [A#m] _ _
[G#] _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ So here am I your only son
_ [F#] Thinking back on work we've done
You were strong [C#] and I was young
_ [A#m] Man, we had our [G#] fight
_ _ [C#] _ Everything I felt for you
_ [F#] Has been turned to something new
_ This is love [C#] I feel today
_ [G#] It will [C#] never go away
[F#] Travel lightly [C#] in my heart
_ [F#] You and I [C#] will never part
_ [F#] Far beyond [C#] this world we see
_ [G#] There's a place [C#] for you and me
_ [A#m] And I think [G#] the moon and stars
_ [F#] We had a chance [C#] to heal our scars
_ [F#] Now I don't have [C#] to hang my head
_ [G#] Over things [C#] I wish I said
[A#m] I don't have [G#] to hide my tears
[F#] I don't have [C#] to drown my fears
[F#] And I don't have [C#] to hang my head
_ [G#] Over things [C#] I wish I said
[F#] No, I don't have [C#] to live in dread
[G#] _ Over things [C#] I wish I said _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _
