Intro 
C#m 
B Ebm C#m 
C#m 
B Ebm C#m 
 
verse 1 
E 
Daylight 
      C#m 
Comes creeping 
       F#m 
In the morning 
      B 
And I wish I was still sleeping 
C#m 
And the daytime 
A 
Is a long time 
         F#m 
Dull and dreary 
        B 
Full of dreams of wishful thinking 
        E 
But the night-time 
       C#m 
Is the one time 
       F#m 
When I miss you 
      A 
And I wish that you were with me 
      C#m 
And I sit and 
  E 
I think of you 
        A 
And I'm lost in 
F#                        B 
Forgotten old memories of you 
 
 
     C#m      F#        B 
Wish you were here with me 
  E             F#        B 
I wish you were here with me 
     C#m      F#        B 
Wish you were here with me 
  E             F#        B 
I wish you were here with me 
 
verse 2 
E 
Night-time 
      C#m 
Comes seeping 
           F#m 
Through my window 
      B 
And I know I should be sleeping 
        C#m 
But I'm thinking 
       A 
Of the last time 
        F#m 
Can you hear me 
       B 
Do you know my hopes are sinking 
         E 
'Cos the night-time 
       C#m 
Is the one time 
       F#m 
When I miss you 
      A 
And I wish that you were with me 
  C#m 
I sit and 
  E 
I think of you 
        A 
And I'm lost in 
F#                        B 
Forgotten old memories of you 
 
 
     C#m      F#        B 
Wish you were here with me 
  E             F#        B 
I wish you were here with me 
     C#m      F#        B 
Wish you were here with me 
  E             F#        B 
I wish you were here with me

And I'm always thinking of you 
B   E          F#          B 
And I'm always thinking of you 
B                          G#m 
And I'm always dreaming of you 
F#         E          G#m 
Always I'm weeping in dreams 
F#          E 
Wishing and hoping 
 
 
     C#m      F#        B
