Topic: I Wonder

Hi
I hope this goes on ok.  It’s a first try.
I wrote this a few years back for a baby we lost in the first years of marriage.
A bit sentimental I know but there it is.
I play it picking though the chords moderately slow

I wonder Undefined


1.


[D] I wonder what you would look like now [G] would you stand straight and [A]tall.




[D] Yes I wonder what you would look like now [G]would you love us [A]all.




[Bm] And in my [A]dreams [G]you stand in front of[A] me.


[Bm] And your [A] face [G]I imagine that I can[A] see.


[D]Yes I wonder what you would look like now[G] I I guess [A7sus4] I will nev[A]er[D] know.


2.


[D]As my mind recalls the past[G] of many years[A] ago.




[D] I was so much younger then[G] and perhaps my loss didn’t [A] show.




[Bm]But now [A] I realise [G]just what you would have meant[A] to me.


[Bm]Now this[A] little emptiness[G] will never let me[A] be.


[D]Yes I wonder what you would look like now[G] I guess[A7sus4] I will nev[A]er[D] know.



3.


[D]Down through the years[G] I still can remember[A] tears.




[D]As we came toterms[G] and excepted our worst[A] fears.




[Bm]You were our[A]first[G] an expression of our[A] love.


[Bm]But you were taken[A] from us[G] perhaps ona whim from God[A] above.


[D]Yes I wonder what you would look like now[G] I guess[A7sus4] I will nev[A]er[D] know.


4.


[D]As time has raced us by[G] the hurt has become a just [A] sigh.




[D]Just a little memory to have to hold[G] to take until I[A] die.




[Bm]You are still [A] with me[G] you have never left my [A] mind.


[Bm]You were something[A] that wasn't to be[G] you wern’t mean't[A] to shine.


[D]Yes I wonder what you would look like now[G] I guess[A7sus4] I wasn’t mean’t[A]to[D] know.

When your feeling at your lowest, they come back to haunt you!
