• If Wishes Were Fishes

I [D] wish I was home again, [G] home in my heart again,
It's [D] been a long time since my heart talked to [A]me; [D]
Wastin' my precious days, [G] wishin' my life away,
If [D] wishes were fishes, we'd all cast [A] nets into the [D] sea.

I wish I was young again, my song still be sung again,
The sweet tunes of my life have gone sour and off key;
Writin' my tired old rhymes, tryin' to turn back time,
If wishes were fishes, we'd all cast nets into the sea.

Chorus:
If [G] wishes were [A] fishes, I [D] know where I'd [G] be, [C]
Casting my net in the dark rolling [A] sea;
And [G] if my net's [A] empty when it [D] comes back to [G] shore,
I'll [D] throw it away and go fishing no [A] more.

I wish I could care again, reach out and share again,
Mend what's been broken and let it run free;
The older I get it seems, more wishin' takes the place of dreams,
If wishes were fishes, we'd all cast nets into the sea
