Intro
[G] [Em7] [Cadd9] [Dsus4]
Verse 1
[G]
I wish that heaven
[Em7]
Had visiting hours
[Cadd9]
So I could just show up
[Cadd9] [G] [Dsus4]
And bring the news
[G]
That she's getting older
[Em7]
And I wish that you'd met her
[Cadd9]
The things that she'll learn from me
[Cadd9] [G] [Dsus4]
I got them all from you
Chorus
[Cadd9] [G] [Dsus4]
Can I just stay a while and we'll put all the world to rights?
[Cadd9] [G] [Dsus4]
The little ones will grow and I'll still drink your favourite wine
[Em] [Emmaj7/D#] [Em7/D] [Em6/C#]
And soon, they're going to close, but I'll see you another day
[G] [Dsus4] [G] [Cadd9] [G]
So much has changed since you've been away
Verse 2
[G]
Well, I wish that heaven
[Em7]
Had visiting hours
[Cadd9]
So I could just swing by
[Cadd9] [G] [Dsus4]
And ask your advice
[G]
What would you do in my situation?
[Em7]
I haven't a clue how I'd even raise them
[Cadd9]
What would you do?
[Cadd9] [G] [Dsus4]
'Cause you always do what's right
Chorus
[Cadd9] [G] [Dsus4]
Can we just talk a while until my worries disappear?
[Cadd9] [G] [Dsus4]
I'd tell you that I'm scared of turning out a failure
[Em] [Emmaj7/D#] [Em7/D] [Em6/C#]
You'd say, "Remember that the answer's in the love that we create"
[G] [Dsus4] [G] [Cadd9] [G]
So much has changed since you've been away
Interlude

Verse 3
[G]
I wish that heaven
[Em7]
Had visiting hours
[Cadd9]
And I would ask them
[Cadd9] [G] [Dsus4]
If I could take you home
[G]
But I know what they'd say
[Em7]
That it's for the best
[Cadd9]
So I would live life the way you taught me
[Cadd9] [G] [Dsus4]
And make it on my own
Chorus
[Cadd9] [G] [Dsus4]
And I will close the door, but I will open up my heart
[Cadd9] [G] [Dsus4]
And everyone I love will know exactly who you are
[Em] [Emmaj7/D#] [Em7/D] [Em6/C#]
'Cause this is not goodbye, it is just 'til we meet again
[G] [Dsus4] [G] [Cadd9] [G]
So much has changed since you've been away
