Always Want What You Can't Have

D G D G D G A D D G D G There's a starry eyed woman that lives up the road D G A D Pick her wild flowers, oh and she tells me no D G D G I don't know why, I want her so bad D G A D Guess you always want what you can't have D G D G I guess that's life, oh that's just the way it goes D G A D Well you won't get something in your hands that you aint never got to hold D G D G And I don't know why I need her, she's about to drive me mad D G A D But I guess you always want what you can't have There's a little piece of land, where I used to go The river runs clear and wild, oh and at times it moves slow Your man he won't sell it, no matter how much I ask Guess you always want what you can't have I guess that's life, oh that's just the way it goes Well you won't get something in your hands that you aint never got to hold And I drive past that old man's land; I just shake my head and laugh I guess you always want what you can't have I guess that's life, oh that's just the way it goes Well you won't get something in your hands that you aint never got to hold And I don't know why we need it; it makes us forget what we had But I guess you always want what you can't have
