I Wish I Was

                 B               
I wish I was a flame dancing in a 
  E
candle
                  B                
Lighting up your living room high 
      E
on the mantle
                    C#m            
I could bring some romance without 
       E
any scandal
                       B         
And then when you were done you'd 
       E
just put me out

                B                  
I wish I was a tune you sang in 
  E
your kitchen
               B               
Putting your groceries away and 
               E
washing your dishes
              C#m                  
I could roll around your tongue and
           E
 ease the tension
                        B        
And then when you were done you'd 
       E           B
just quiet down

          E
But if I get too close
          B
Will the magic fade?
        D#m              G#m
Would I turn you off or away?
      E
If I pull you in
            B
Now would I push you out
Continues after the ad
    D#m                     G#m
Of something here you care about?
         C#m             E
Well I'm at a loss for what to do
         F#           F#7
But I'm drawn to you

                 B            
I wish I was a sweater wrapped 
            E
around your hips
             B                  
And when it got too cold into me 
   E
you'd slip
             C#m                   
And when the sun came back you 
  E
would hang me up
             B                 
And I would watch you while you 
 E
undress

          E
But if I get too close
          B
Will the magic fade?
        D#m              G#m
Would I turn you off or away?
      E
If I pull you in
            B
Now would I push you out
    D#m                     G#m
Of something here you care about?
         C#m             E
Well I'm at a loss for what to do
         F#           F#7
But I'm drawn to you

           B
I'm not a song
             E
I am not a sweater
           B
I'm not a fire
               E
I am something better
      C#m                      
I'm a man in love writing you a 
 E
letter
          B
Will you take it?
          E
Will you keep it?
          C#m
Will you read it?
   E
Believe it
   B
I love you
     E
I'm sorry
