Natalie Imbruglia: Track 05: Wishing I Was There: Left of the Middle (1998)
This is a very fun and simple song, all chords are relative to capo...I have seen this
in other ways but when I listen to the song the chords sound more open to me so I prefer
play it with a capo..it makes life a lot easier. I am almost positive that I have this
but if you have corrections let me know ;)
**Capo 3rd fret**
Intro: D C G D (x2)
Verse 1:
D
Take your hand,
C
And place it in my pocket,
Flick your eyes back in their sockets
G
Put those thoughts away
D
Sometimes they're much too loud
D
I'll take a breath
C
And cradle your sweet head
G
Should've stayed at home in bed
D
Put that face away I'm melting for you
Pre-Chorus:
G
I know,
Bm
I get cold
D
Cause I can't leave things well alone
Understand I'm accident prone
G Bm
Me, I get free
C G
Every night the moon is mine
Chorus:
D
But when the morning comes
C
Don't say you love me,
G
Don't say you need me
D
I really don't think that's fair
D C
Boy, I'm not so dumb, but when you leave me
G D
I'll be wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there
Verse 2:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/n/natalie_imbruglia/wishing_i_was_there_crd_ver_2.html ]
D C
I dreamt about another girl in bed with you
G
You just laughed and smiled, denied the proof
D
We're fine till I think of a problem
D
I wish it made sense,
C
Like a joke that no one gets,
G
It's a life without regret
D
I want it to feel that way, forever and ever
Pre-Chorus:
G
I know,
Bm
I get cold
D
Cause I can't leave things well alone
Understand I'm accident prone
G Bm
Me, I get free
C G
Every night the moon is mine
Chorus:
D
But when the morning comes
C
Don't say you love me,
G
Don't say you need me
D
I really don't think that's fair
D C
Boy, I'm not so dumb, but when you leave me
G D
I'll be wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there
G D
Wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there
G D
Wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there with you (x2)
Bridge:
C
No, don't say you love me,
G
Don't say you need me
D
I really don't think that's fair
D C
Whoa, I'm not so dumb, but when you leave me
G D
I'll be wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there with you
G D
Wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there
G D
Wishing I, wishing I, wishing I was there with you (Play until end)
And there you have it...Enjoy!
