If Wishes Were Horses by James Hill
If Wishes Were Horses
Key: C
[Verse]
E
It was already August,
B E
the first blush of autumn
A B
in the cheeks of the maple and ash
E C#m B
I was so busy mindin'
E A
my business that I didn't see her
B E
'til she asked me to dance
E
Now I don't like my chances
A
of puttin' her beauty in words
B E
but I'll give it a try:
E B
Her eyes were as blue as a
E A
Hank Williams song and
B E
her voice like an old lullaby
[Chorus]
B B7 E
If wishes were horses we'd ride together
A E B B7
Chasing the wind 'cross the plains
B7 C#m B E
If longing was midsummer rain
A E C#m A B E
I'd turn the canyons into deep rivers again
E
Now the dancefloor was hot
B E
as a greenhouse in June
E A E
and the band swung like a trapeze
E
And I held her as close as I
B E A
dared to then spun her around
B E
like a leaf in the breeze
E
One song, one dance
sometimes you only get
A E
one chance to let your love show
E B7
And I still can't explain
E A
why I hid mine away
B E
like a daffodil under the snow
[Chorus]
E B E
A E B
E A E
E
No whisky, no gin
No trouble I'm in
A E
can chase her out of my mind
E B
Where do you go when
E A
time passes slow and
B E
love has left you behind?
[Chorus]
