I Wish You Love
Words & Music by Charles Trenet
English Translation by Albert A. Beach
Recorded by Frank Sinatra, 1964
Gdim Dm DM+7 Dm7 G7
I wish you bluebirds in the spring
CM7 Am7 CM7 Am7
To give your heart a song to sing,
Dm7 Dm7/G Dm6 Fdim C Em7-5
And then a kiss, but more than this, I wish you love.
Gdim Dm Dm+7 Dm7 G7
And in July a lemonade
CM7 Am7 CM7 Am7
To cool you in some leafy glade;
Dm7 Dn7/G Dm6 G7 Gm7 Gdim
I wish you health, and more than wealth I wish you love.
Bridge:
FM7 Fm7 Bb9
My breaking heart and I agree
Em7 G/B Gdim
That you and I could never be,
Dm7 (barre 5) D9 G7
So with my best — my very best — I set you free.
Gdim Dm Dm+7 Dm7 G7
I wish you shelter from the storm,
CM7 Am7 CM7 Am7
A cozy fire to keep you warm,
Dm7 Dm7/G G7 C Fm7 Bb9 CM7
But most of all, when snowflakes fall, I wish you love.
