The White Buffalo - Wish It Was True








CAPO: 2nd Fret


INTRO: C

          F    C
Mother, tried to do right by you
        F    C
To do what you asked me to
   G      C   F C
I did wrong and I knew

           F    C
Mother, I tried to behave for you
          F     C
Now I'm a-digging a grave for you
    G      C  F C F
It was all I could do


G                A11  F   Fsus2
Find a way back home, make everything new
   F      C   F C  F C  F C
But I wish it was true


             F    C
Father, well I'll give my soul to you
        F     C
I came in blindfolded for you
    G     C   F C F
It was all that I knew


G                     A11 F
Open your arms and I'll fly out of hell up to you
         C   F C F C F C  Dm
But I wish it was true


BRIDGE:
             F
Boy come on out from the cold
                   C
You're lost outside there, don't you know
                   G
It's not what you say, it's what you do
                 Dm
Just keep wishing your wishes are true
                 F
Well your dreams they're reality now
                C
There's no pain, there's no misery
               G
Just polish the blood and the bruise
                F
For there's just no way you can lose
         C  F C F C F C F C F C F C
But I wish it was true


         F      C
Country, I was a soldier for you
        F    C
I did what you asked me to
    G       C   F C
It was wrong and you knew


            F      C
Country, now I'm just a stranger to you
      F     C
A number, a name, it's true
     G        C    F C F
Throw me away when you're through



  G                       F
The home of the brave and free, the red white and blue
         C   F C F C F C
But I wish it was true
