I wish I was a neutron bomb, for once I could go off
I wish I was a sacrifice but somehow still lived on
I was a sentimental ornament you hung on
The Christmas tree, I wish I was the star that went on top
I [F]wish I was the [C]evidence, I [F]wish I was the [C]grounds
For [F]fifty million [C]hands upraised that [G]open toward the [F]sky

I wish I was a silhouette, someone who waited for me
I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me
I wish I was a messenger and all the news good
I wish I was the full moon shining off a Camaro's hood

I wish I was an alien at home behind the sun
