From: omenos@cs.washington.edu (Onkar Meno Sharma)

Here's the gist/chords of Can't Always Get What You Want 
by the Rolling Stones...

(Please note I make NO guarantees about the words, I'm doing this on the fly,
but it should be enough to get you started.  Besides, I don't I ever really
knew the words :o )

It's best to listen to a recording to get the strumming pattern...




(In the key of C)





C                           F 

   I saw her today at the reception

C                         F

   A glass of wine in her hand

C                                   F 

   I knew she was going to meet her connection

C                              F                   

   At her feet was a footloose man



Chorus:



C                                  F

(No) you can't always get what you want



C                             F

You can't always get what you want



D

But if you try sometime, 



F

you might find



                 C                      F                    etc...

You get what you need...                yeah, yeah.....





BTW, If you are still at the point where an F chord if gruesome, then go ahead
and just play in the key of D (play D instead of C, G instead of F, and E 
instead of D in the chorus).  I did it that way when I was first learning the
guitar.

Hope this works and sorry for any mistakes or misjudgements.
