**Capo 3** 
 
Intro: D  Em  A  D 
 
  D                         G     
They kissed goodbye at the terminal gate  
          A                               D    G - D  
She said you're gonna be late if you dont go 
D                         G                 
He held her tight, said I'll be alright  
A                                 D 
And I'll call tonight to let you know 
Em           A                 D      
He bought a postcard, on the front it just said Heaven 
        Em             A             D 
With a picture of the ocean and the beach 
        Em               A                 D       
And the simple words he wrote her said he loved her and they 
Bm             Em                            A 
They told her, how he'd hold her if his arms would reach 


               D                    G   
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place 
              Em                  A 
Wish you were near, wish I could touch your face  
               G          A              D              G 
The weather's nice, it's paradise, it's summertime all year 
              Em                            A             
There's some folks we know, they say hello, I miss you so 
               D 
Wish you were here  
 
 
D  Em  A  D 
 
D                                  G           
She got a call that night, but it wasnt from him  
A                         D    G - D 
It didn't sink in right away 
D                           G         
Ma'am the plane went down, our crews have searched the ground 
A                   D 
No survivors found she heard him say 
         Em            A               D    
But somehow she got a postcard in the mail that just said Heaven 
        Em             A             D 
With a picture of the ocean and the beach 
        Em               A                 D       
And the simple words he wrote her said he loved her and they 
Bm             Em                            A 
They told her, how he'd hold her if his arms would reach 
 
CHORUS 
               G        A              D              G 
The weather's nice, in paradise, it's summertime all year 
             Em                            A             
And all the folks we know, they say hello, I miss you so

Wish you were here 
A              D   Em  Asus A  D
