I Wish I Could've Been There Teclado

	  C             G                         Am                F  
When our baby Kate was born, it was the biggest day of my life 
C                                            G 
Lyin' there, little bows in her hair, in the lovin' arms of my wife 
          Am       G               F   
I was the proudest papa in the U.S.A. 
C                                       G 
Makin' a living on the road somewhere a thousand miles away  

       Am      G              F   
It was a happy day, but kinda sad  
C                 G 
I wish I could've been there,  
Am                F 
I wish I could've been there  
  F               G              C 
I wish I could've been there for that
  
 
 
Little Bobby hit his first homerun, he was the hero of the hometown crowd 
Two to one, it was the winning run, everybody was cheerin' loud 
Mama, she was smilin' and sayin' he's a chip off of the old block 
But I was on the road somewhere between Memphis and Little Rock  
 
Chorus 
 
Now Bobby and Kate are all grown up and moved away 
They stay in touch, we're proud of the good kids that we raised 
And it's hard to believe we're celebratin' our 25th year today 
This party's nice, but the kids aren't here, at least they called to say 
 
"Congratulations, Mom and Dad" 
Wish we could've been there 
I wish we could've been there 
I wish we could've been there for that 
 
 
Chorus
