Wish It Was True Chords & Lyrics by The White Buffalo
Wish It Was True
guitar chords lyrics
My take on this wonderful song, recently heard on Sons of Anarchy. The Cadd9 is
probably actually an F or a variation thereof, but I find it easier to add the
finger picking with this, and it sounds pretty true to the original.
Standard tuning, capo 7th.
G Cadd9 G
Mother, Try to do right by you
To do what you asked me to
D G
I did wrong and I knew.
Mother I tried to behave for you
Now I�m a digging a grave for you
It was all I could do.
D C
Find a way back home, Make everything new
G
But I wish it was true.
Father, well I�ll give my soul to you
I came in blind folded for you
It was all that I knew.
Open your arms and I�ll fly out of hell up to you
I wish it was true.
Am C
Boy come on out from the cold
G
Your lost outside there don�t you know
D
It�s not what you say it was you do
Am
Just keep wishing your wishes are true
C
Well your dreams there reality now
G
There�s no pain there�s no misery
D
Just polish the blood and the bruise
C
For there�s just no way you can lose.
G
But I wish it was true.
Country, I was a solider for you
I did what you asked me to
It was wrong and you knew.
Country, now I�m just a stranger to you
A number a name it�s true
Throw me away when you�re through.
D C
Home of the brave and free the, the red white and blue
G
But I wish it was true.
