You Can’t Always Get What You Want [Flashpoint]

[Intro: Mick Jagger & (Audience)]
I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she would meet her connection
At her feet was a footloose man
Okay guys
(Now you can't always get what you want)
(Now you can't always get what you want)
(Now you can't always get what you want)
But if you try sometime
You'll find
You get what you need

[Verse 1]
And I went down to the devil's church on
To get my fair share of abuse
Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration
If we don't, we're going to blow a 50-amp fuse"

[Chorus]
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
Well, you might find
You get what you need

[Verse 2]
I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy
And man, did he look pretty ill
We decided that we would have a soda
My favorite flavor, cherry red
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy
Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was "dead"
I said to him:

[Chorus]
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
Well, you just might find
You get what you need

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
You get what you need, yeah, oh baby
I saw her today at the reception
In her glass was a bleeding man
She was practiced at the art of deception
Well I could tell by her blood-stained hands

[Chorus]
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
Well, you just might find
You get what you need

[Outro]
You can't always get what you want, yeah
You can't always get what you want, ooh yeah
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes, you just might find
You just might find you get what you need

[Audience Applause]

[Spoken Word: Mick Jagger]
So listen, tonight we thought we'd try a number we don't do very much. It's a country song, well, sort of like that. What album is it from Bill? He doesn't know. Beggar's Banquet somebody said
