A  E  F#m  D


[Verse 1]

A
 Rainy days
E
 In that cold apartment
F#m
 That's where it started
D
 And there was no stopping it
A
 In that place
E
 We fell apart in
F#m
 That's where my heart lives
D
 And there ain't no stopping it
F#m    E              D
 As I watch you fade away


[Chorus]

          A
I wish I knew
        E
How to hold you
             F#m
And say the words
         D
I never told you
          A
I wish I knew
        E
How to listen
             F#m
And see the signs
            D
That I was missing
                  A                   E
I know that it's late and I took too long
              F#m
I just wanna say
                   D
That I know I was wrong
          A              E
I wish I knew, I wish I knew
          F#m    D
I wish I knew. . .


[Verse 2]

A
 I'm hurting bad
E
 The same old story
F#m
 When a broken heart beats
D
 Yeah there ain't no stopping it
A
 But looking back
E
 I can't ignore it
F#m
 When tears are falling
D
 Yeah there ain't no stopping them
F#m    E              D
 As I watch you fade away


[Chorus]

          A
I wish I knew
        E
How to hold you
             F#m
And say the words
         D
I never told you
          A
I wish I knew
        E
How to listen
             F#m
And see the signs
            D
That I was missing
                  A                   E
I know that it's late and I took too long
              F#m
I just wanna say
                   D
That I know I was wrong
          A              E
I wish I knew, I wish I knew
          F#m            D
I wish I knew, I wish I knew, how to love you


[Interlude]

A    E    F#m
Ohh  Ohh  Ohh
          D
I wish I knew how to love you
A    E    F#m
Ohh  Ohh  Ohh
          D
I wish I knew how to love you
F#m              E
I need a minute, I need a minute
D
 It is what it is yeah


[Chorus]

          A
I wish I knew
        E
How to hold you
             F#m
And say the words
         D
I never told you
          A
I wish I knew
        E
How to listen
             F#m
And see the signs
            D
That I was missing
                  A                    E
I know that it's late, you’re already gone
              F#m
I just wanna say
                   D
That I know I was wrong
          A              E
I wish I knew, I wish I knew
          F#m            D            N.C.
I wish I knew, I wish I knew, how to love you
