I WISH CHORDS

[Start]

[Intro]

[Verse]
Ab7                                                     
   Looking back on when I was a little nappy headed boy
Ab7                                                      
Then my only worry was for Christmas what would be my toy
Bb7            C7        Bb7                  
Even though we sometimes would not get a thing
                       F7                Ab7  
We were happy with the joy the day would bring
Gb7      Ab7              
Sneaking out the back door
   Ab7                                            
To hang out with those hoodlum friends of mine ooh
Ab7                     
Greeted at the back door
  Ab7                                 
I thought I told you not to go outside


[Chorus]
Bb7                 C7        Fm7               
Tryin' your best to bring the water to your eyes
Bb7               C7            F7            Gb7   
Thinkin' it might stop her from whippin' your behind
             Ebm7 Ab7                      
I wish those days could come back once more
        Ab7                       
Why did those days ever have to go
             Ebm7 Ab7                      
I wish those days could come back once more
        Ab7                       
Why did those days ever have to go
                   Eb7 Ab7 Eb7 Ab7
'cause I love them so          


[Verse]
Ab7                                                              
Brother says he's tellin' 'bout you playin' doctor with that girl
Ab7                                            
Just don't tell I'll give you anything you want
              Ab7       
In this whole wide world
Bb7                  Fm7        F7    
Mama gives you money for Sunday School
Bb7                 C7    Bb7                    
You trade yours for candy after church is through
Ab7                                                       
Smokin' cigarettes and writing something nasty on the wall
Ab7                                                      
Teacher sends you to the principal's office down the hall
  Bb7        
I can't do it


[Chorus]
                C7                           Db7  
You grow up and learn that kinda thing ain't right
Bb7                            F7                    
But while you were doin' it it sure felt out of sight
             Ab7                           
I wish those days could come back once more
        Ab7                       
Why did those days ever have to go
             Ab7                           
I wish those days could come back once more
        Ab7                       
Why did those days ever have to go
