G Em C G
I wish I was in Wellington, the weather's not so good
G Em
The wind it cuts right through you and
C C
it rains more than it should
C D G Am
But I'd be there tomorrow, if I only could
Bm C
Oh I wish I was in Wellington
(ramp up tone)
G Em C G
I wish I was in Wellington - the bureaucracy.
G Am (high harmony) C D
The suits and the briefcases along Lambton Quay [pronounced "Kee"]
C D7 Em Am7 Am
The Harbour City Capital, the lights beside the sea
G C
Oh I wish I was in Wellington
G Em Bm Am
It just isn't practical, you down in the capital
C Am C D
And me at the other end of the island (syncopated)
Am D Em C
The problem is the gap - between us on the map
Am C D Dsus2 D
And there's no easy way to reconcile it
