I Wish I Could

[G] [D]
[G]Looking out my window

See you playing in the leaves
It's amazi[Em]ng how a little girl

Means all the world to me
When I tell [D]you that I love you
I love you more[Am] tha[Am7]n words [D]can say      [G]

[G]Smile, say cheese pretty-please

I wanna take your picture
[Em]How'd you ever get so big

I gotta take your picture
Ho[D]ld on to the memory before the whole thing slips aw[Am]ay  [Am7]          [D]                       [G]

I wis[D]h I could save [G]these moments

And put 'em in a jar
I wish I could stop the[Em] world from turning
Keep things just th[D]e way they are
I wish I could shelter y[Em]ou from everything
Not pur[Bm]e and sweet and good          [Am]
I know I ca[C]n't[Am7], I know I can'[D]t
But I wish I could  [G]

When you kiss me[G] for no reason

It goes straight to my heart
When I feel y[Em]our arms around me

I almost fall apart
It's [D]time for bed you whisper
Dadd[Am]y, we forgot[D] to pray      [G]

Repeat Choro.

And when I wat[Bm]ch you sleeping
All my worrie[Em]s fade away
A little bit[C] of heav[Am]en gl[Am7]ows on your [Em]angelic face    [D]

I wis[D]h I could save [G]these moments

And put 'em in a jar
I wish I could stop the[Em] world from turning
Keep things just th[D]e way they are
I wish I could shelter y[Em]ou from everything
Not pu[Bm]re and sweet and good        [C]
I know I ca[Am]n't,[Am7] I know I can'[Bm]t
I know I c[C]an't,
But [D]I wish I could   [G]
