I Wish It Was Me

Bm  C  Em  D

[Verse 1]
Bm  C
    Known each other since forever
Em  D
    You always seemed to have my 
heart
Bm  C
    You said that we'd end up 
together
Em  D
    But I never knew where to start


[Pre-Chorus]
Am                 C
And every time you find somebody
Em                   D
And tell me how you think that 
they're the one
Am                 C
It's hard for me to take
                 Em                
You loved me in a way that I don't 
D
want


[Chorus]
   G
You look at me like I'm someone
     Em
You only need when it goes wrong
         C
But you look at him like he's your 
missing piece
      Em                  D
And darling, I wish it was me, I 
wish it was me


[Verse 2]
Bm  C
    Always hoped I'd be the reason
Em  D
    The reason you can't sleep at 
night

Bm  C
    The one you miss so much, you're
 barely breathing
Em  D
    The face you see when you turn 
out the lights


[Pre-Chorus]
Am                    C
And every time you've got nobody
Em                   D
I'm thinking maybe I could be the 
one
Am                 C
It's hard for me to take
                 Em                
You loved me in a way that I don't 
D
want


[Chorus]
   G
You look at me like I'm someone
     Em
You only need when it goes wrong
         C
But you look at him like he's your 
missing piece
      Em                  D
And darling, I wish it was me


[Post-Chorus]
     G
The music fades, the lights come on
    Em
And I just want to take you home
         C
But you whispered to him that you're
 ready to leave
       Em                  D
And darling, I wish it was me, I 
wish it was me


[Bridge]
Am                   Bm
And I almost told you about a 
million times
C                      D
Always tripping over words I never 
seem to find
Am                    Bm
Just a little closer, it's getting 
harder to hide
Em      D         C
I keep losing the lights
       Em             D           
But the answer's right there in 
  C
your eyes


[Chorus]
   G
You look at me like I'm someone
     Em
You only need when it goes wrong
         C
But you look at him like he's your 
missing piece
      Em                  D
And darling, I wish it was me,
   G
You look at me like I'm someone
     Em
You only need when it goes wrong
         C
But you look at him like he's your 
missing piece
      Em                  D
And darling, I wish it was me,


[Post-Chorus]
     G
The music fades, the lights come on
    Em
And I just want to take you home
         C
But you whispered to him that you're
 ready to leave
       Em                  D
And darling, I wish it was me, I 
wish it was me
