Verse 1

Am             C          Am        C
I wish I could believe in something bigger
Am              C            Am           C
More than these trees, these winds, these oceans
G                                     Am C Am C
I wish I could believe what they tell me

Am              C              Am            C
I saw, I saw, I saw my brother pack his bags and leave
Am              C            Am            C
We made our goodbyes and now he is settled down in the city
G                           Am     C   Am C
Where he doesnt have to be himself


Chorus 1

F                  C            
He used to play an untuned guitar
      F                       C
While he sang about me and he sung about the stars
F                C
I used to dream about another time
    G                             Em                          Am C Am C
And now its all clear that's the only time I wish would come back


Verse 2

Am             C         Am     C
I wish I could hold on a little longer
Am               C           Am      C
Still my worried stomach and calm my hunger
G                                       Am C Am C
I wish I could believe what they taught me

Am              C             Am       C
I saw, I saw, I saw, I saw an old photograph
Am                    C             Am         C
And the picture that appeared, well it took me back 
       G                      Am C Am C
To the time when she was around


Chorus 2

F                     C
She used to play that old mandolin
    F                  C
The moon and the sea invited her in
F                 C
I wish that I had told her by then
G                               Em                               Am C Am C
But she knew deep down that she only wished that time would come back


Bridge

G          F
A new day awaits me
G               C
I could be gone today
G          F
A new day awaits me
G                   Am
We could be here to stay


Chorus 3

F                   C
We used to wait for our heavy storms
   F                  C
To take us away while something new would form
F                        C
I wish that I could have known by then
G                          Em                          Am
We all know now that we're never getting back to those times
