You Can't Always Get What You Want Jagger - Richards C F (X4) I saw her today at a reception A glass of wine in her hand I knew she would meet her connection At her feet was her footloose man CHORUS: C F (X3) D D F C F (No,) you can't always get what you want (X3) But if you try sometimes you might find you get what you need I saw her today at the reception A glass of wine in her hand I knew she was gonna meet her connection At her feet was her footloose man CHORUS: Oh yeah, hey hey hey, oh... And I went down to the demonstration To get my fair share of abuse Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration If we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse" Sing it to me now... CHORUS: I went down to the Chelsea drugstore To get your prescription filled I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy And man, did he look pretty ill We decided that we would have a soda My favorite flavor, cherry red I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was "dead" I said to him CHORUS: Oh yes! Woo! You get what you need--yeah, oh baby! Oh yeah! I saw her today at the reception In her glass was a bleeding man She was practiced at the art of deception Well I could tell by her blood-stained hands CHORUS: (X2)
