WISHFUL THINKING

As recorded by Waylon Wyatt

(From the 2026 Album DUSTPILES)

Capo 1st fret

Intro

[C] [D] [C]

Verse 1

[D]

I was sure we had what it takes

[C]

To make it through the ups and downs

[D]

Through the good love and heartbreak

[C]

What a fool I’d be to think that now

Pre-Chorus

[D]

But I still dream of you babe

[C]

Yeah I still think about

[D]

If right now would be too late

[G]

For us to work it out

Chorus

[C] [G]

That’s what I get for wishful thinking

[Am7]

But if thinking gets the teardrops flowing

[D] [G]

I’ll dry my eyes with the towel you’re throwing

[C]

That’s what I get for wishful thinking

[Am7]

Maybe I should’ve known better

[D] [G]

Nothing good ever lasts forever

[Em] [C] [G] [D]

That’s what I get for wishful thinking

Verse 2

[C] [D]

Well I’m a wreck now for Heaven’s sake

[G] [C]

That’s a side effect of loving you

[D]

It’s a nightmare I can’t escape

[D]

And some dreams just don’t come true

Chorus

[G] [C] [G]

That’s what I get for wishful thinking

[Am7]

But if thinking gets the teardrops flowing

[D] [G]

I’ll dry my eyes with the towel you’re throwing

[C]

That’s what I get for wishful thinking

[Am7]

Maybe I should’ve known better

[D] [G]

Nothing good ever lasts forever

[Em] [Em7]

That’s what I get for wishful thinking

Interlude

[Em7] [C] [Am7] [D]

Bridge

[C] [D]

If you ever have second thoughts

[C]

Like you’re wanting to start again

[Am] [D]

Just know that I’m a lost cause

[G]

I’m still living like it didn’t end

[Out-Chorus]

[G] [C] [G]

That’s what I get for wishful thinking

[Am7]

But if thinking gets the teardrops flowing

[D] [G]

I’ll dry my eyes with the towel you’re throwing

[C]

That’s what I get for wishful thinking

[Am7]

Maybe I should’ve known better

[D] [G]

Nothing good ever lasts forever

[D] [C] [Am7] [G]

That’s what I get for wishful thinking

[C]

That’s what I get for wishful thinking
