Standard Tuning (EADGBe)

Asus2 = |002200|

Everything is actually played as power chords besides the Asus2, but that sounds a bit
too empty with just one acoustic guitar to me.

Intro
|Asus2 E |F#m A E |x2
|Asus2 E |Bm D E |Asus2 E |F#m A E |x2

Verse

|Bm A|F#m D|x2

|Bm A |F#m D |
I dig my toes into the sand
|Bm A |F#m D |
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket
|Bm A |F#m D |
I lean against the wind, pretend that I am weightless
|Bm A |F#m D |
and in this moment i am happy, happy

Chorus

|Asus2 E|Bm D E |
I... wish you were here
|Asus2 E|F#m A E |
I... wish you were here
|Asus2 E|Bm D E |
I... wish you were here
|Asus2 E|F#m A E |
I... wish you were...

Verse

|Bm A |F#m D|
...here
|Bm A|F#m D|

|Bm A |F#m D |
I lay my head onto the sand
|Bm A |F#m D |
The sky resembles a backlit canopy with holes punched in it.
|Bm A |F#m D |
I'm counting ufo's, I signal them with my lighter
|Bm A |F#m D |
and in this moment i am happy, happy.

Chorus

|Asus2 E|Bm D E |
I... wish you were here
|Asus2 E|F#m A E |
I... wish you were here
|Asus2 E|Bm D E |
I... wish you were...
|Asus2 E|F#m A E |
Here... wish you were...

Bridge

|F#m A|G G |
Here..
|F#m A|G G |
|F#m A |G |
The world's a roller coaster and I am not strapped in.
|F#m A |G |
Maybe I should hold with care, but my hands are busy in the air saying

Chorus (softer)
|Asus2 E|F#m Asus2 E |
I... wish you were here
|Asus2 E|F#m A E |
I... wish you were...
Chorus (normal)
|Asus2 E|Bm D E |

|Asus2 E|Bm D E |

|Asus2 E|F#m A E | Asus2
Here... wish you were... here...
