F
I wish I had button eyes and a red felt nose
G7
C
A shaggy cotton skin and just one set of clothes
C7
F
Sitting on a shelf in a local department store
G7
C
With no dreams to dream and nothing to be sorry for
F
I wish I w-as a teddy bear
G7

Not living or loving nor going nowhere
C7
F
I wish I w-as a teddy bear

And I’m wishing that I hadn’t fallen in love with you
C7
F
I wish I had a wooden heart and a sawdust mind
G7
C
Then your memory wouldn’t come around hurting all the time
C7
F
I’d have a sewed on smile and a painted twinkle in my eye
G7
C
And I never would have ever had to learn how to cry
F
I wish I w-as a teddy bear
G7
C
Not living or loving nor going nowhere
C7

I wish I w-as a teddy bear

I wish I had a string you could pull to make me say
G7

Hi I’m Teddy ain’t it a lovely day
C7
F
Then I’d know every time I spoke the words were right
G7
C
And no one would know the mess I’ve made of my life
F
I wish I w-as a teddy bear
G7
C
Not living or loving nor going nowhere
C7
F
I wish I w-as a teddy bear
C

And I’m wishing that I hadn’t fallen in love with you
