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.
[Verse 1]
G Cadd9 G Mother, I tried to do right by you Cadd9 G To do what you asked me to D G C 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 C G It was all I could do. D C C/D Find a way back home, Make everything new G But I wish it was true.
C G C G C G
[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 C G C It was all that I knew. D C Open your arms and I’ll fly out of hell up to you C/D 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.

G Cadd9 G Country, now I’m just a stranger to you Cadd9 G A number a name it’s true D G C 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.
