Sophie’s Wish
 
Am                                 Em
How can I look in your eyes?
Am                                 Em
How can I stand by and watch you fade
Am                           
How can I smile and say
G                                      D
Everything’s going to be fine
 
Am                             Em
How do I get you to laugh?
Am                                  Em
How do I make you feel happy again?
Am
How do I make you smile
G                              D
Even if just for one day
 
 
Chorus
    C                                   D
If I could grant you one wish
                G                       Em
If I could take your pain away
    C                                   D
If I could give you the world
                 G                      Em
If I could only take you place
           Am                         D                     G
But I don’t know how to make this go away.
           Am                         D                     Em
I just don’t know haw to make this go away.
 
 
Am                                 Em
I know you don’t understand
Am         Em
I know that you’re too young to realise
Am
I know there’s nothing I
G       D
Can do to change how things stand
 
 
Am                                  Em
I’m fighting back all my tears
Am                                   Em
I’m thinking of all those wasted years
Am
I’m praying every
G       D
Day but you’re slipping away
 
 
Chorus

I picked up the old Guitar and had a go and it is realy great as a song as it was writen. I feel their should be a third verse to close it out. Very well done."The Bard"
