Wishing I Was There

Natalie Imbruglia: Track 05: Wishing I Was There: Left of the Middle (1998)

This is a very fun and simple song, all chords are relative to capo...I have seen this

in other ways but when I listen to the song the chords sound more open to me so I prefer

play it with a capo..it makes life a lot easier. I am almost positive that I have this

but if you have corrections let me know ;)

**Capo 3rd fret**

Intro: D C G D (x2)

Verse 1:

D

Take your hand,

C

And place it in my pocket,

Flick your eyes back in their sockets

G

Put those thoughts away

D

Sometimes they're much too loud

D

I'll take a breath

C

And cradle your sweet head

G

Should've stayed at home in bed

D

Put that face away I'm melting for you

Pre-Chorus:

G

I know,

Bm

I get cold

D

Cause I can't leave things well alone

Understand I'm accident prone

G Bm

Me, I get free

C G

Every night the moon is mine

Chorus:

D

But when the morning comes

C

Don't say you love me,

G

Don't say you need me

D

I really don't think that's fair

D C

Boy, I'm not so dumb, but when you leave me

G D

I'll be wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there

Verse 2:

D C

I dreamt about another girl in bed with you

G

You just laughed and smiled, denied the proof

D

We're fine till I think of a problem

D

I wish it made sense,

C

Like a joke that no one gets,

G

It's a life without regret

D

I want it to feel that way, forever and ever

Pre-Chorus:

G

I know,

Bm

I get cold

D

Cause I can't leave things well alone

Understand I'm accident prone

G Bm

Me, I get free

C G

Every night the moon is mine

Chorus:

D

But when the morning comes

C

Don't say you love me,

G

Don't say you need me

D

I really don't think that's fair

D C

Boy, I'm not so dumb, but when you leave me

G D

I'll be wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there

G D

Wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there

G D

Wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there with you (x2)

Bridge:

C

No, don't say you love me,

G

Don't say you need me

D

I really don't think that's fair

D C

Whoa, I'm not so dumb, but when you leave me

G D

I'll be wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there with you

G D

Wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there

G D

Wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there with you (Play until end)

And there you have it...Enjoy!
