Standard (EADGBE)
Riff
Intro
Would you stay for one night if I didn't come home?
At the end of a big fight, doesn't matter anymore
The point in my midlife, the situation stands
But hours pass like years
Wish you were here
--B/D- RIFF
Wish you were here
Did I open an old wound? Is there something I should know?
If it's all ending so soon, how could we possibly let go?
Comes to a head this is high noon finale we have planned
But hours pass like years
Wish you were here
Say the words so slow, say it without fear
You won't turn to go, you won't leave me here
If the past is all we know, my memories are clear
--B/D- RIFF
Wish you were here
Outro
If I told you, were you listening? Did you know this from the start?
Do the dates match exactly? Do you plan when we would part?
If I won't wait for another year I guess you'll break my heart
So take this as a souvenir, remember me I'm waiting here
The disappointed hanger-on who stayed behind while you moved on
Wish you were here
