Wish You Well

Intro  C G  C

(alternate your bass notes on chords)

Verse 1

C                          G
There's a tangerine sunset
C
Reflectin' off the water
                                 Dm
Reflectin' off this bottle in my hand
F      Dm
When I get to the bottom of it
                        F
I got five more in that bucket
          Dm
To get me free as can be
         G              Em    C
like the breeze off the sugar sand

Chorus 1

I was a shadow of myself
            Dm
Back on the mainland when you left
                 F
Out here, I can clear my mind
        G                C
and the wind can fill my sails

One more Tecate and I'll be
          Dm
Closer to where I need to be
    Dm7     F
Six Mexican beers between
              G                 C
wish you were here and wish you well

Verse 2

You know these dark-haired senoritas

They sure know how to treat ya'

Ain't sure what they're sayin'
                   Cmaj7 Dm
but I'm hangin' on every word

With every sip I get a little bit closer

To forgettin' and gettin' over
                  Dm7        Em
That memory that followed me down
                  C
here to heaven on earth

Chorus 2

G       C
I was a shadow of myself
            Dm
Back on the mainland when you left
                F
Out here, I can clear my mind
        G                C
and the wind can fill my sails

One more Tecate and I'll be
          Dm
Closer to where I need to be
     Dm7     F
Four Mexican beers between wish
         G                 C    Dm  F  G  C
you were here and wish you well

Bridge
                                    G
When I crossed the border, I told myself
C          Dm
I'd say goodbye in Cozumel
    Dm7     F
Two Mexican beers between wish
         G                 C
you were here and wish you well
                       G C
Dear, I wish you well
