Kevin Welch      Wishing For You   written by Kevin Welch

C
Let it be said I'm a rational man
                         F
And I live in the usual ways
      C
But I dream mighty high for the shape that I'm in
                                 F
And I always  knew one of these days
                                 C
The stakes in this game would be raised
                F                   C
I'm wishing for you I'm wishing for you
                 G F                    C
What else can I do but keep wishing for you
C
Gold ain't so precious diamonds don't shine
                            F
And a mountain top ain't so tall
C
Life's just a way passing some time
                              F
Love's just a place where you fall
                             C
And nothing else matters at all
                F                   C
I'm wishing for you I'm wishing for you
                 G F                    C
What else can I do but keep wishing for you
G                                       F         C
Well if my wishes were horses honey my horse could run
G                       F       C
Faster and farther than most anyone's
G                  F           C
If only you hadn't just up and gone
C                G           C
And left me here wishing for you

INSTRUMENTAL

C
Now you may never know what I had on the line
                          F
But I hope if someday you do
          C
You'll be held in some arms just as gentle as mine
                               F
With a love just as strong and true
                          C
That what I'm wishing for you

F    C    G    F   C

                F                   C
I'm wishing for you I'm wishing for you
                 G F                C
What else can I do but keep wishing for you
