INTRO:  C  C*   C  C*  C  G7  C   (2x)

            C   C* C               C*  C
I wish you love      and happiness
               G7           C
I guess I wish you all the best
                 C* C              C*  C
I wish you don't      do like I do
                           G7           C
And ever fall in love with someone like you


BRIDGE 1:
                F               C
'Cause if you feel just like I did
                                                  G7
You probably walk around the block like a little kid
               C    C* C                      C*  C
But kids don't know      they can only guess
               G7              C
How hard it is to wish ya happiness


INTRO (just once)


I guess that love is like a Christmas card
You decorate a tree, you throw it in the yard
It decays and dies then the snowmen melt
Well I once knew love, I knew how love felt


BRIDGE 2:

Yeah I knew love, love knew me
And when I walked love walked with me
And I got no hate and I got no pride
Well I got so much love that I cannot hide
Yeah I got so much love that I cannot hide


SOLO (INTRO 2x)


Say you drive a Chevy, say you drive a Ford
You say you drive around the town 'til you just get bored
And then you change your mind for somethin' else to do
And your heart gets bored with your mind and it changes you


                     F                       C
Well it's a doggone shame and it's an awful mess
                 G7               C
I wish you love, I wish you happiness
                 G7               C
I wish you love, I wish you happiness
               G7           C
I guess I wish you all the best
