Wish It Was True by The White Buffalo - Guitar Chords
<< Back to The White Buffalo Song List
Version 1
My take on this wonderful song, recently heard on Sons of Anarchy. The Cadd9 is
probably actually an F or a variation thereof, but I find it easier to add the
finger picking with this, and it sounds pretty true to the original.
Standard tuning, capo 7th.
[Verse 1]
G Cadd9 G
Mother, I tried to do right by you
Cadd9 G
To do what you asked me to
D G
I did wrong and I knew.
G Cadd9 G
Mother I tried to behave for you
Cadd9 G
Now I’m a digging a grave for you
D G
It was all I could do.
D C
Find a way back home, Make everything new
G
But I wish it was true.
[Verse 2]
G Cadd9 G
Father, well I’ll give my soul to you
Cadd9 G
I came in blind folded for you
D G
It was all that I knew.
D C
Open your arms and I’ll fly out of hell up to you
G
I wish it was true.
[Bridge]
Am C
Boy come on out from the cold
G
You're lost outside there don’t you know
D
It’s not what you say it what's you do
Am
Just keep wishing your wishes are true
C
Well your dreams they're reality now
G
There’s no pain there’s no misery
D
Just polish the blood and the bruise
C
For there’s just no way you can lose.
G
Well I wish it was true.
[Verse 3]
G Cadd9 G
Country, I was a soldier for you
Cadd9 G
I did what you asked me to
D G
It was wrong and you knew.
G Cadd9 G
Country, now I’m just a stranger to you
Cadd9 G
A number a name it’s true
D G
Throw me away when you’re through.
D C
Home of the brave and free the, the red white and blue
G
Well I wish it was true.
