INTRO: G C D G   (3x)
       Em C G C G

                          C     
Well, the first breath of autumn 
 D                 G
blows through the trees
                           Em      
And the nights are getting long and
         Am D
 growing colder
        G          C               
And the maples are turning and the 
D                Em
fields have gone brown
        G                 Em   
And the waves against the shore, 
              D   G
make such a sad sound


                          C        
Now there's a meal on the table and
   D           G
 a fire in the stove
                     Em            
And a candle burning brightly by 
  Am   D
the stairway
      G           C          
And a lamp in the window, that 
  D             Em
shines out to sea
      G              Em           
And I wish so much tonight, that 
        D         G    C  G
you were here with me


                   C         D    
Now the moon is in danger of 
    G
running aground
Continues after the ad
                           Em    
As she sweeps the tattered clouds 
           Am D
above the island
        G              C          
And the stars lay like diamonds on
     D             Em
 the breast of the sea
      G                Em         
And I wonder where you are and if 
       D           G
you're thinking of me


CHORUS:
         Em         G         
Now I've grown so accustomed to 
  C          D
having you near
      Em          G          C   
And I miss you so madly when you 
        A
are not here
       C             G            
When I think how you love me, oh, 
   C            A
it brings me to tears
      G              Em           
And I wish so much tonight, that 
        D         G
you were here with me
      Em                           
Oh, I wish so much tonight, that 
       D         G
you were here with me

                     C           D
Well I dropped you a postcard, 
          G
today in the mail
                    Em          
With a picture of a sailing ship 
  Am  D
upon it
      G            C              
And I tried to say something that 
    D          Em
was clever and clear
        G            Em       
But the only thing I wrote, was 
            D            G
that, "I wish you were here"


CHORUS:
         Em         G         
Now I've grown so accustomed to 
  C          D
having you near
      Em          G          C   
And I miss you so madly when you 
        A
are not here
       C             G            
When I think how you love me, oh, 
   C            A
it brings me to tears
      G              Em           
And I wish so much tonight, that 
        D         G
you were here with me
      Em                           
Oh, I wish so much tonight, that 
       D         G
you were here with me
