Visiting HoursCifra

G  
I wish that heaven  
            Em  
Had visiting hours  
      C9  
So I could just show up  
    C9     G    D4  
And bring the news  
        G  
That she's gettin' older  
                    Em  
And I wish that you'd met her  
                       C9  
The things that she'll learn from me  
           C9    G   D4  
I got them all from you  

   C9                 
Can I just stay a while  
               G               D4  
And we'll put all the world to rights?  
       C9      
The little ones will grow  
              G                     D4  
And I'll still drink your favourite wine  
  E5                      D#5+  
And soon, they're going to close  
             D6         C#7  
But I'll see you another day  
          G                       D4  
So much has changed since you've been away

      G  
Well, I wish that heaven  
         Em  
Had visiting hours  
             C9  
So I could just swing by  
         C9  G  D4  
And ask your advice  
              G  
What would you do in my situation?  
               Em  
I haven't a clue how I'd even raise them  
              C9  
What would you do?  
                  C9     G      D4  
'Cause you always knew what's right  

                  C9  
Can we just talk a while  
          G          D4  
Until my worries disappear?  
     C9  
I'd tell you that I'm scared  
  G              D4  
Of turning out a failure  
          E5                  D#5+      
He'd say: Remember that the answer's  
      D6             C#7  
In the love that we create  
            G               D4               
So much has changed since you've been away

  G  
I wish that heaven  
            Em  
Had visiting hours  
           C9  
And I would ask them  
           C9   G    D4  
If I could take you home  
                      G  
But I know what they'd say  
                 Em  
That it's for the best  
                  C9           
So I would live life the way you told me  
            C9  G  D4  
And make it on my own  

    C9                             
And I will close the door  
           G             D4  
But I will open up my heart  
          C9  
And everyone I love will know  
G               D4  
Exactly who you are  
        E5           D#5+  
'Cause this is not goodbye  
            D6           C#7  
It is just till we meet again  
             G                   D4  
So much has changed since you've been away
