G 
I wish I were a little girl in this life 
Cadd9                    D          G 
No one could resist my little girl smile 
G 
I wish I were a baby in this love 
Cadd9                    D          G 
I'd be cradled in your arms day and night 


G                            
I wish I were an old man, a scholar 
Cadd9                       D          G 
With the wisdom of a 1,000 men before me 
G    
I wish I were a funny dream that haunted 
Cadd9                    D               G 
The people I love every time they were down 


                D  
I wish I was a fine wine 
                Cadd9 
I wish I were a good drug 
                     G                              D 
Hey, and if I were Jesus, maybe I could heal all of us 
              D                      Cadd9    
Just like a good lover, which one do you prefer? 
                      G                           D 
In a world full of vices, I wish I were a little bird 
(intro x2) 
Sometimes   


G 
I wish I were the sunset in Verona 
Cadd9                               D              G 
I'd make a beautiful picture every time I went to bed 
G 
Or maybe more the sunrise waking up to a sad man 
Cadd9                         D                        G 
And hey, if I were the blue skies, I'd never rain on him 


                 D 
I wish I was a fine wine 
                  Cadd9 
I wish I were a good drug 
                      G                              D 
Yeah, and if I were Jesus, maybe I could heal all of us 
             D                        Cadd9 
Just like a good lover, which one do you prefer? 
                      G                           D 
In a world full of vices, I wish I were a little bird 
(intro x2) 
Sometimes 


G 
I wish I were an angel in '52 
Cadd9                       D              G 
In a blue Cadillac on the eve of the New Year 
G  
And there I would have saved him, the man who sang the blues 
Cadd9           D                G 
But maybe he is listening right now 
Cadd9            D              G* 
Hopefully he's listening right now
