I saw her today at the reception,
Cadd9 C F
a glass of wine in her hand
Cadd9 C F
I knew she was gonna meet her connection,
Cadd9 C F
at her feet was a footloose man

You can't always get what you wa-ant

You can't always get what you wa-ant
Cadd9 C F
You can't always get what you wa-ant

but if you try sometimes,
F
you might find,
C F
you get what you need

I went down to the demonstration,
to get my fair share of abuse
Singing, "we're gonna vent our frustration,
if we don't we're gonna blow a 50 amp fuse"
Chorus
I went down to the Chelsea Drug Store,
to get your prescription filled
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy,
and man did he look pretty ill
We decided 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...

I saw her today at the reception,
in her glass was a bleeding man
She was practiced at the art of deception,
I could tell by her bloodstained hands
