Tim I Wish You Were Born a Girl of Montreal
[F]Tim, wish you were born a [Am]girl,
Wish you were born a g[A#]irl,
So [A]I could've been your[Gm] boyfriend.
I [C]know it's not [Dm]possible[A#] now.
I just [F]never met a [C]girl I like half as [A]much as [Gm]you.
And [F]we could lay around in[Am] bed, stay there all [A#]day,
Or at [A]least until the [Gm]afternoon
And [C]I could make you spa[Dm]ghetti with to[A#]mato sauce
With [F]just a touch of or[C]egano and a [A]parsley [Gm]stem.
And [F]then when you got[Am] sick, I could take the day off [A#]work.
[A]I could've made you [Gm]chicken soup, And [C]we could watch soap [Dm]operas
- oh, those [A#]TV dramas! [F]I could catch your [C]cold
and you could [A]take care of[Gm] me.
mmm[Am]mmm, If I could've met you at [F]school, or met you at[A#] work,
It would have changed [Gm]everything.
Those [C]years of losing, conf[F]usion and insecurit[A#]y,
They would have been [Gm]shared,
they would have been [Am]ea-si-[A#]er, oh-
[F]Tim, wish you were[Am] born a girl,
Wish you were born a [A#]girl,
So [A]I could've been your [Gm]fiancé.
I'm [C]not saying you can't be all these [Dm]things for [A#]me,
But it's just not the [F]same because you're a [C]man, and so am [F]I

On the solo, he sort of slides, but I can't pin-pont exactly where, so listen to the
to see how he does it.
