[Chorus]

Am          C       
  I always want what 

         G
I can't get

            C    
It's always close 
              F 
But not quite yet

        Dm             G
For the most part I forget
        Gsus4 
What I wanted anyway
 
Am         C                  G5 
  I always see the things I'm not
               C       
And look right past the 
            F
Things I've got

        Dm             G
For the most part I forgot
        Gsus4 
What I wanted anyway

[Verse]

C            G/B          
  I think of all the things
       C
 I've done 

       F                    G
What I do and what's to come
           C               F 
Of all the choices that I make
            G
The chances that 

I didn't take
 
C            G/B       
  Of all the dreams that
            C
 Tried and failed

           F                    G
Birds that flew and ships that sailed
            C        
Of all the love that's
            F
 Lived and died

         G
Makes me wonder why I
 
 
[Chorus]

Am       C                 G5 
  Always want what I can't get
            C    
It's always close 
               F 
But not quite yet

        Dm             G
For the most part I forget
        Gsus4 
What I wanted anyway
 
Am         C                  G5 
  I always see the things I'm not
               C        
And look right past the 
            F
things I've got

        Dm             G
For the most part I forgot
        Gsus4 
What I wanted anyway

C            G/B          
  I think of all the folks
        C
 I've known

            F         
How they've changed and 
            G
How they've grown

           C                  F
Some are flying through the sky
          G
Some are sinking like stones
 
C             G/B        C
  Of all the memories I keep
        F               G
Locked away and buried deep
           C     
Of all the times 
                   F
I've laughed and cried

         G
Makes me wonder why I
 
 
[Chorus]

Am       C                 G5 
  Always want what I can't get
            C    
It's always close 
              F
But not quite yet

        Dm             G
For the most part I forget
        Gsus4 
What I wanted anyway
 
Am         C                  G5 
  I always see the things I'm not
               C    
And look right past
                 F
 The things I've got

        Dm             G
For the most part I forgot

        Gsus4 
What I wanted anyway
