  C                      F 
I saw her today at the reception
  C                    F 
A 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
    C                         F 
You can't always get what you want
           D                    F 
But if you try sometime, you'll find
                 C           F   C   F  C  F  C  F 
You get what you need

You get what you need  ahhhhhhah yeah
[Verse]
      C                      F 
And 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 
If we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse"
F 
Sing it to me now...
[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                       F 
But if you try sometimes, well you just might find
                 C           F   C   F 
You get what you need  ahhhhhhah baby, yeah

  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 
Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was "dead"
F 
I said to him
[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                                   F 
But if you try sometimes, you just might find
                 C           F 
You get what you need  Oh yes! Woo!

  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 blood-stained 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                                       F 
But if you try sometimes, you just might find, you just might find
                 C       F  C   F 
You 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                                       F 
But if you try sometimes, you just might find, you just might find that

You get what you need  ahhhhhhah yeah
