A                                       D
I wish I had button eyes and a red felt nose
E                                      A
shaggy cotton skin and just one set of clothes
                                         D
sittin' on a shelf in a local department store
     E                                          A
with no dreams to dream and nothing to be sorry for

*Chorus*
A         A7         D
I wish I was a teddy bear
              E                  A
not livin' or lovin' nor going nowhere
          A7         D
I wish I was a teddy bear
        A                     E              A
and I'm wishin' that I hadn't fallen in love with you


I wish I had a wooden heart and a sawdust mind
then your memory wouldn't come around hurtin' all the time
I'd have a sewed on smile and a painted twinkle in my eye

    hide ad ⨯
    

        

    



and I never would've ever had to learn how to cry


I wish I was a teddy bear
not livin' or lovin' nor goin' nowhere
I wish I was a teddy bear
and I'm wishin' that I hadn't fallen in love with you

*Key Change - Bb*

I wish I had a string you could pull to make me say
"Hi. I'm Teddy. Ain't it a lovely day?"
Then I'd know everytime I spoke the words were right
and no one would know the mess I made of my life

I wish I was a teddy bear
not livin' or lovin' nor goin' nowhere
I wish I was a teddy bear
and I'm wishin' that I hadn't fallen in love with you
and I'm wishin' that I hadn't fallen in love with you
