Few words. This should be totally correct. The other tab
of this song has a few mistakes. The C#m/D is weird.
I dont know why Kevin Barnes placed that chord in the
song. On the Bb7, you barr the chord, but you make sure
your pinky is on the 9th fret of the B string. The C#m/D
is the same as a C#m but the root is up one step.
Enjoy.

[Abm] [E]
[F#]U wawawawawawawawawa
I[F#] wish I knew a man
Someone to steal me from this sadness
[Bb7] I wish I knew a girl
Who'd run her fingers through my hair and kiss me
Wi[G#m]sh I didn't have to pretend
[E]That when I'm talking to [B]the floor I'm talking to you
[Edim] If I had a friend
Then such st[F#]upid things I'd n[G#]ever have to do[C#m]
[C#/D]I wish I ha[F#]d a friend
[F#]U wawawawawawawawawa
I wish I knew a man
One who'd help me to stop disguising my feelings
[Bb7]I wish I knew a girl
who'd keep me from silencing
my heart's voice
[G#m]Oh I wish I didn[E]'t feel like an island
No country will [F#]claim
Wish [Edim]I had a friend
[F#m]who'd stop me from falling into this
[G#]depression all over [C#m]again
[C#m/D]I wish I had a fr[E]iend like th[D]at
But I kn[A]ow it will ne[Am]ver be
So that friend for [E]me has to co[F#7]me from inside of [B7]me
My [Edim]friend will have to be [F#]me
[F#]I wish I knew a man
Someone to help me stop being self conscious
[Bb7]I wish I knew a girl
One to take away my fear of dying
[G#]I wish I weren't afraid that some
[E]spirit will [B]come out of the darkness and carry me away
I wish I had [Edim]a friend whom if that
[F#m]happened wo[G#]uld storm [C#m]right in and save the day
[C#m/D]I wish I had a [E]friend[D] like that
[A]But I know it will[Am] never be
So that fr[E]iend f[F#7]or me has t[G#]o come from inside of me
[Edim]My friend wi[F#]ll have t[B]o be me.
E G#m x7 F#7
