F                         F/E 
 Dear friend of my mine 
Dm                 C 
 The Weather's fine 
    Bb             F            Dm               C 
 Today I saw some ruins of the Roman world's decline 
     Am                    Bb 
 And I climbed all those Spanish steps 
         F         C      Dm 
 You've heard of them no doubt 
      Gm 
 But Rome has lost its glory, 
           Bb            C 
 I don't know what its about 

F I wish you were here F Em Dm C Bb When the shadows fall and all the rushing traffic's still F I wish you were here F Dm When the bells are ringing on the seven hills Gm C I make my way to a small cafe, I wonder what you did today F C F Bb C Wish you were here
Verse: F F/E Dear one at home Dm C I just flew in from Rome Bb F Dm C Paris is a postcard all decked out in colour chrome Am Bb And so I climbed the Eiffel Tower F C Dm And prayed at Notre Dame Gm But I just can't find the romance Bb C And I wonder why I came
F Wish you were here F Em Dm C Bb On the Champs Elysees lovers walk hand in hand F Wish you were here Dm They take one look at me and seem to understand Gm C Bb This city of light is a lovely site, the first bright star I see tonight D Wish you were here
Bridge: G Now I write this from the plane F Drinking cheap champagne Bb Eb And wondering why two people got so far apart
G Wish you were here G F#m Em D C Here in London where the rain is pouring down G Wish you were here Em On this airplane headed back to New York Town Am D C I'll never leave you alone again. I'm coming home but until then G D C Wish you were here G D C I wish you were here G G F#m Em D C Wish you were here
