Cm G
I wish you freedom I wish you peace
Cm G
I wish you nights of stars that beckon you to sleep
Em Dsus C
I wish you heartache that leaves you more of a man
Am Em Cm G
I wish I could be there, but I can't
I wish you places that sit so still
Where people never ever change and never ever will
I wish I could hold you and make you understand
I wish I could be there, but I cant

[chorus]
Bm C
Be good for your mama
Em Dsus
Cause she'll need a hand to hold
Bm C
Boy, she loves you
Em A
More than you'll ever know
Csus Bm
There are rhymes and there are reasons
Csus Bm
And times when nothing stayed the same
Cm* Dm* Cm*
But you know my love still remains
I wish you wisdom, I wish you years
I wish you armies to conquer all your fears
I wish you courage for all that life demands
I wish I could be there, but I can't
[chorus]
Be good for your mama
Cause she'll need a hand to hold
Boy, she loves you
More than you'll ever know
There are rhymes and there are reasons
And times when nothing stayed the same
But you know my love still remains
I wish we were together
I wish I was home
I wish there were nights where I was never alone
I know I've said it but I'll say it once again
I wish I could be there, but I can't
