I Wish You Were Here (Oh My Darlin')
Recorded by The Oak Ridge Boys
Written by Michael Foster

F                        C
Wish you were here oh my darlin'
  G7                       C
I still think about me and you

              G7             F           C
Of all of the pleasures I've known in my life
               G7         F
This one keeps holding me near
C             G7             F        C
Times that we spent in those innocent days
               G7            C
Those were the days you were here

         G7       F           C
Saturday movies a kiss in the dark
            G7         F
Love was so tender and kind
C          G7            F          C
Simple and true like the heart of a child
        G7             C   Dm C
Never a doubt you were mine

F                        C
Wish you were here oh my darlin'
G7                        Am  G7
Sharin' the times that we knew
F                        C
Wish you were here oh my darlin'
  G7                       C
I still think about me and you

              G7       F         C
Time got away with the boy in my face
            G7                F
I know it's just a little too late
C             G7        F                 C
Heard you got married I guess you stopped carin'
               G7         C
Still nobody's taken your place

             G7         F                C
Cheatin' and lyin' with hearts that stop tryin'
           G7              F
That's how I'm doin' these days
  C        G7            F         C
I miss you tonight and I wanted to write
           G7          C  Dm C
Here's all I wanted to say

repeat #3 x3
