INTRO: G C D G   (3x)
       Em C G C G

                          C      D                 G
Well, the first breath of autumn blows through the trees
                           Em               Am D
And the nights are getting long and growing colder
        G          C               D                Em
And the maples are turning and the fields have gone brown
        G                 Em                 D   G
And the waves against the shore, make such a sad sound


                          C           D           G
Now there's a meal on the table and a fire in the stove
                     Em              Am   D
And a candle burning brightly by the stairway
      G           C            D             Em
And a lamp in the window, that shines out to sea
      G              Em                   D         G    C  G
And I wish so much tonight, that you were here with me


                   C         D        G
Now the moon is in danger of running aground
                           Em               Am D
As she sweeps the tattered clouds above the island
        G              C               D             Em
And the stars lay like diamonds on the breast of the sea
      G                Em                D           G
And I wonder where you are and if you're thinking of me


CHORUS:
         Em         G           C          D
Now I've grown so accustomed to having you near
      Em          G          C           A
And I miss you so madly when you are not here
       C             G               C            A
When I think how you love me, oh, it brings me to tears
      G              Em                   D         G
And I wish so much tonight, that you were here with me
      Em                                  D         G
Oh, I wish so much tonight, that you were here with me


INSTRUMENTAL: G  C G  C D G  C G  Em C G C G


                     C           D          G
Well I dropped you a postcard, today in the mail
                    Em            Am  D
With a picture of a sailing ship upon it
      G            C                  D          Em
And I tried to say something that was clever and clear
        G            Em                   D            G
But the only thing I wrote, was that, "I wish you were here"


CHORUS:
         Em         G           C          D
Now I've grown so accustomed to having you near
      Em          G          C           A
And I miss you so madly when you are not here
       C             G               C            A
When I think how you love me, oh, it brings me to tears
      G              Em                   D         G
And I wish so much tonight, that you were here with me
      Em                                  D         G
Oh, I wish so much tonight, that you were here with me
