I Wish I Coulda Been There 
By:  John Anderson 
 
Key of C 
 
C		G			Am		 F 
When our baby Kate was born it was the biggest day of my life 
C					    G 
Lying there little bows in her hair in the loving arms of my wife 
	  Am	   G		   F 
I was the proudest papa in the U.S.A. 
C					G 
Making a living on the road somewhere a thousand miles away 
	 Am    G	    F	    C		    G 
It was a happy day, but kinda sad.  I wish I coulda been there 
Am		F			    G		   C 
I wish I coulda been there, I wish I coulda been there for that. 
 
C		     G				Am		    F 
Little Bobby hit his first home run he was the hero of the hometown 
crowd 
C				    G 
2 to 1 it was the winning run, everybody was cheering loud 
Am		 G			F 
And mama she was smiling saying, he's a chip off of the old block 
C					G 
But I was on the road somewhere between Memphis and Little Rock 
	 Am    G	    F	    C		    G 
It was a happy day, but kinda sad.  I wish I coulda been there 
Am		F			    G		   C 
I wish I coulda been there, I wish I coulda been there for that. 
 
 
C		G		 Am		F 
Now Bobby and Kate are all grown up and moved away 
C					G 
They stay in touch, we're proud of the two good kids we raised 
	 Am		       G		F 
And it's hard to believe we're celebrating our 25th year today 
C					    G 
This party's nice, but the kids aren't here, at least they called to say 
Am       G              F      C	       G 
Congradulations Mom and Dad .  I wish we coulda been there 
Am		F			    G		   C 
I wish we coulda been there, I wish we coulda been there for that. 
	 Am    G	    F	    C		    G 
It was a happy day, but kinda sad.  I wish they coulda been there 
Am		F			         G		   C 
I wish they coulda been there, I wish they coulda been there for that.
