[Verse 1]
        G               D         
Well I wish I had some memories   
          G               D
that I'd keep inside my trunk
C                E         Am    
I wish I had a nickel for every 
A7         D
beer I've drunk
       G                D         
And I wish I had me a sailing ship
          G                 D
  that'd take me over the sea
C                E7            
I wish I could talk you into 
Am   A7        D
coming home with me

[Chorus]
C                      E         
Is this the part where I came in 
             Am         E      Am
 Well, I've heard this song before
C                                
Had a couple too many    but I 
E          A7       D
think I can find the door
      G                  D
And I do not know your name my 
friend
         C                  G
But I've seen that face before
       G       D        C        
Well I saw it in the Jail House  
      G        D       C
 And I saw it in the war
        G    D     C           
And I saw it in my mirror   A couple
Em
 of times before

[Verse 2]
G                  D          G 
I wish I was the Candyman   
              D
Sweet as I could be
C                  E             
In every town the ladies hang 
              Am      A7      D
'round   Just to get a taste of me

G                   D         G 
I wish I was an opry star, or 
       D
had me a PhD
C                  E7            
I wish I had the common sense  to
      Am    A7     D
 be satisfied with me

[Chorus]
C                      E

[Verse 3]
    G                  D          
I wish I had a magic pocket,  
    G                D
that'd keep all my money in
C                E               
I wish I knew a good excuse for 
Am        A7      D
all of my mortal sins
           G               D      
Well they say to know the best in 
         G                D
life, you gotta know the worst
C                   E            
I wish that I had been the clown,
       Am        A7         D
 who thought up that one first


[Chorus]
C                      E

Let me tell you
   G     D        C
I saw it in the Jail House
        G           D      C
It was on the post office door
       G      D    C
And I saw it in my mirror
    Em
A couple of times before
               G      D      C
Good People I saw it in the jail 
house
    G     D      C
I saw it in the war
        G      D      C
Lord I saw it in the mirror ... Fade
