Intro 1
(D major) (G major) (D major) (A major) (D major)
Verse 1
I (D major) stole
that money for my baby
I shot that man who shot at me (A major)
She (D major) didn't even show
up in the (G major) court room
And I'm (D major) wishin' she was
here (A major) instead of me (D major)
Now (G major) Lord, you know that I ain't (D major) yellow
But she's out there runnin' fancy (A major) free
I'm (D major) lovin' up some other (G major) feller
And I'm (D major) wishin' she was here (A major)
instead of me (D major) (G major) (D major)
(A major) (D major)
I stole that money for my honey
I dressed her like a Christmas tree (A major)
Now (D major) she won't even
write a (G major) letter
And I'm (D major) wishin' she was
here (A major) instead of me (D major)
In (G major) three more days they're
gonna hang (D major) me
And I've got it comin' I'll (A major) agree
But with my (D major) last breath
They'll hear me (G major) holler
Lord, I'm (D major) wishin'
She was here (A major) instead of me (D major)
Yes, I'm wishin'
She was (A major) here instead of (D major) me you
Wishin' She Was Here (Instead Of Me)
