Verse:
G Gadd9 G C
I saw her today at the reception,

a glass of wine in her hand
G Gadd9 G C
I knew she was gonna meet her connection,
G Gadd9 G C
at her feet was a footloose man
Chorus:
G Gadd9 G C
You can’t always get what you want
G Gadd9 G C
You can’t always get what you want
G Gadd9 G C
You can’t always get what you want
A C G
but if you try sometimes, you might find, you get what you need
Instrumental: G Gadd9 G | C }x2
Verse:
G Gadd9 G C
I went down to the demonstration,

if we don’t we’re gonna blow a 50 amp fuse”

Verse:
G Gadd9 G C
I went down to the Chelsea Drug Store,
G Gadd9 G C
to get your prescription filled
G Gadd9 G C
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy
G Gadd9 G C
and man did he look pretty ill
G Gadd9 G C
We decided we would have a soda,
G Gadd9 G C
my favorite flavour: cherry red
G Gadd9 G C
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy,
G Gadd9 G C
and he said one word to me and that was “dead”

Verse:
G Gadd9 G C
I saw her today at the reception,

She was practiced at the art of deception,

I could tell by her bloodstained hands
