[Intro]
    C                         F
You can't always get what you want
           D
But if you try sometime
       F
You'll find
                 C     F  C  F  C  F  C  F
You get what you need

[Verse 1]
  C                      F
I saw her today at the reception
C                      F
A glass of wine in her hand
      C                              F
And 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
But if you try sometimes
          F
Well, you just might find
                 C    F  C  F
You get what you need

[Verse 2]
       C                     F
Ooh, 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 going to blow a 50-amp fuse"

[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
Well, you just might find
                 C
You get what you need
F  C  F
Aaah

[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 just might find
                 C
You get what you need

[Outro]
