 Chord:  Bmin7
 I wish you freedom,  I wish you peace
 I wish you nights  of stars, that beckon you to sleep
 I wish you heartache,  that leaves  you more a man
 I wish I could be  there,  but I can’t
 I wish you places,  that sit so still
 Where people never  ever change, and never ever will
 I wish I could hold  you and make  you understand
 I wish I could be  there  but I can’t
 Be good for your momma
 Cuz she’ll need  a hand to hold
 Boy she loves  you more  than you’ll ever know
 There are rhymes  and there are reasons  and times  when
 nothing stayed the same,  but you know  my love  still remains
 I wish you wisdom,  I wish you years
 I wish you armies,  to conquer all your fears
 I wish you courage,  for all  that life demands
 I wish I could be  there,  but I can’t
 Be good for your momma
 Cuz she’ll need  a hand to hold
 Boy she loves  you more  than you’ll ever know
 There are rhymes  and there are reasons  and times  when
 nothing stayed the same,  but you know  my love  still remains
 I wish we were together,  I wish I was home
 I wish there were nights  where I was never alone
 I know I’ve said  it but I’ll say  it once again
 I wish I could be  there  but I can’t
