I Wish My Baby Was Born by Tim Eriksen
I Wish My Baby Was Born
(standard tuning)
(capo 3rd fret)
intro with an arpeggio on the C to lead into the first Am (because, i think, the second
"i wish" is actually the first beat).
Am C
I wish, I wish my baby was born
Am G
And sitting on its papa's knee
Am C
And me poor girl (and me poor girl) were dead and gone
G C
And the green grass growin' o'er my feet
Am C
I ain't ahead, nor never will be
G C
'Til a sweet apple grows on a sour apple tree
Am C
But still I hope (but still I hope) the time will come
G C
When you and I shall be as one
Am C
I wish, I wish my love had died
G C
And sent her soul to wander free
Am C
Then we might meet (then we might meet) where ravens fly
G C
Let our poor bodies rest in peace
Am C
The owl, the owl is a lonely bird
Am C
It chills my heart with dread and terror
Am C
That someone's blood there on his wing
G C
That someone's blood there on his feather

I wish, I wish my baby was born
And sitting on its papa's knee
And me, poor girl
And me, poor girl, were dead and gone
And the green grass growing o'er my feet
I ain't ahead, nor never will be
Till the sweet apple grows
On a sour apple tree
But still I hope, But still I hope the time will come
When you and I shall be as one
I wish, I wish my love had died
And sent his soul to wander free
Then we might meet where ravens fly
Let our poor bodies rest in peace
The owl, the owl
Is a lonely bird
It chills my heart
With dread and terror
That someone's blood
There on his wing
That someone's blood
There on his feathers.
