[G] [D] [C] [G] [D] [C] [G] [D] [C] [Em]
[VERSE 1]
Well I w[G]ish I had some m[D]emories that I'd k[G]eep inside my tr[D]unk
[C]I wish I had a ni[E]ckel for e[Am]very b[A7]eer I've dr[D]unk
And I w[G]ish I had me a sa[D]iling ship that'd t[G]ake me over the se[D]a
[C]I wish I could ta[E7]lk you into co[Am]ming [A7]home with [D]me
[CHORUS]
[C]Is this the part where [E]I came in Well, I've h[Am]eard this s[E]ong bef[Am]ore
[C]Had a couple too many but I th[E]ink I can f[A7]ind the d[D]oor
And I [G]do not know your na[D]me my friend
But I've [C]seen that face befo[G]re
Well I [G]saw it i[D]n the Jai[C]l House And I[G] saw it i[D]n the wa[C]r
And I sa[G]w it [D]in my [C]mirror A c[Em]ouple of times before
[VERSE 2]
[G]I wish I was the Ca[D]ndyman Sw[G]eet as I could b[D]e
[C]In every town the l[E]adies hang 'round Just to [Am]get a ta[A7]ste of m[D]e
[G]I wish I was an opry[D] star, or [G]had me a [D]PhD
[C]I wish I had the co[E7]mmon sense to be sa[Am]tisfie[A7]d with [D]me
[CHORUS]
[C]Is this the part where [E]I came in Well, I've h[Am]eard this s[E]ong bef[Am]ore

And I sa[G]w it [D]in my [C]mirror A c[Em]ouple of times before
[VERSE 3]
I wi[G]sh I had a magic po[D]cket, that'd k[G]eep all my money [D]in
[C]I wish I knew a g[E]ood excuse for a[Am]ll of my m[A7]ortal si[D]ns
Well they s[G]ay to know the b[D]est in life, you[G] gotta know the w[D]orst
[C]I wish that I had be[E]en the clown, who th[Am]ought up t[A7]hat one fir[D]st
[CHORUS]

Let me tell you
I s[G]aw it [D]in the Ja[C]il House
It was o[G]n the post o[D]ffice d[C]oor
And I s[G]aw it i[D]n my [C]mirror
A co[Em]uple of times before
Good People I s[G]aw it i[D]n the j[C]ail house
I sa[G]w it i[D]n the w[C]ar
Lord I s[G]aw it i[D]n the m[C]irror ... Fade out
