You can't always get what you want

Rolling Stones
 Cadd9F
I saw her today at the reception
 Cadd9F
A glass of wine in her hand
 Cadd9F
I knew she was gonna meet her connection
 Cadd9F
At her feet was a footloose man

 Cadd9F
You can't always get what you want
 Cadd9F
You can't always get what you want
 Cadd9F
You can't always get what you want

You get what you need...   ahhhhhhh, yeah.....

I went down to the demonstration,
To get my fair share of abuse.
Singing "we're gonna vent our frustration,
And if we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse."

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,
And he said one word to me, and that was "dead,"
I said to him:

chorus

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 bloodstained hands.

chorus repeat
