Intro: C F C F

  C                      F 
I saw her today at the reception 
  C                    F 
А glass of wine in her hand 
  C                              F 
I knew she was gonna meet her connection 
       C                    F 
At her feet was a footloose man 
 
Chorus: 
    C                         F 
You can`t always get what you want

    C                         F 
You can`t always get what you want 
           D 
But if you try sometimes, 
  F 
You might find 
                 C              F  C  F 
You get what you need... Ahhhhhhh, yeah...
 
  C                      F 
I went down to the demonstration, 
  C                      F 
To get my fair share of abuse. 
  C                      F 
Singing "we`re gonna vent our frustration, 
  C                      F 
And if we don`t we`re gonna blow a 50-amp fuse." 
 
Chorus: 
    C                         F 
You can`t always get what you want

    C                         F

           D

You might find 
                 C     F C F 
You`ll get what you need. 
 
  C                      F 
I went down to the Chelsea drugstore 
  C                      F 
To get your prescription filled. 
  C                      F 
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy, 
  C                      F 
And man, did he look pretty ill. 

  C                      F 
We decided that we would have a soda, 
  C                      F 
My favorite flavor, cherry red. 
  C                      F 
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy, 
  C                      F 
And he said one word to me, and that was "dead," I said to him: 
 
Chorus: 
    C                         F 
You can`t always get what you want 
    C                         F

    C                         F

You might find 
                 C          F C F 
You`ll get what you need, ...Oh yes 
                 C          F C F 
You`ll get what you need--yeah, oh baby. 
 
  C                      F 
I saw her today at the reception, 
  C                      F 
In her glass was a bleeding man. 
  C                      F 
She was practiced at the art of deception, 
  C                      F 
Well I could tell by her bloodstained hands. 
 
Chorus: 
    C                         F 
You can`t always get what you want 
    C                         F 
You can`t always get what you want 
    C                         F 
You can`t always get what you want 
           D 
But if you try sometimes, 
  F 
You might find 
                 C  
You just might find 
            F  C  F 
You`ll get what you need. 
 
Chorus: 
    C                         F 
You can`t always get what you want 
    C                         F 
You can`t always get what you want 
    C                         F 
You can`t always get what you want 
           D 
But if you try sometimes, 
  F 
You might find 
                 C 
You just might find 
             F  C  F 
You`ll get what you need.
