1. Did I fail you some way that you're not telling now ?

                                     G                                    C

    Did I fail you some way, somewhere, somehow ?

                                              C                        G

    When you took that last step beyond the door,

                                   G                                C

    I can't follow you there, I can't follow for sure.

                                    F                        C

    It's a road that you take all on your own,

                                      G                                                      C       - C7

    one you don't come back from and there's no place like home.

 

                             F                                       C

I wish you were here, how I wish you were here !

                        G                               F                                         C

I'm out on my own, I'm so far from home, and I wish you were here.

2. Are you watching me now, all alone in this place ?

                                     G                                      C

    Are you seeing me cry ? Oh, how I miss your face !

                                              F                               C

    And the warmth of your smile, the light in your eyes

                                            G                                        C     - C7

    there was no fare thee well and there was no goodbye.

 

                                    F                                        C

And I wish you were here, how I wish you were here !

                         G                              F                                         C

I'm out on my own, I'm so far from home, and I wish you were here.

 

                                   F                                       Am

+  When I'm looking back on the time that we shared

                                          G                                   C

    oh, we know you were loved and that I always cared.

                    F        - Am - G - C

    I always cared !

 

                                  C                                G

3. But I know in my heart that we'll meet again,

                                    G                        C       - C7

    and I know deep inside this isn't the end,

 

                                   F                                         C

And I wish you were here, how I wish you were here !

                         G                                      C       - C7

I'm out on my own, and I wish you were here.

 

                                   F                                        C

Oh, I wish you were here, how I wish you were here !

                         G                              F                                         C

I'm out on my own, I'm so far from home, and I wish you were here.
