You Can't Always Get What You Want (Live 2013)

[Intro: Voce Chamber Choir]

Well I saw her today at the reception

A glass of wine in her hand

I knew she was gonna meet her connection

At her feet was a footloose man

No, 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 sometime

You'll find

You get what you need

[Audience Applause]

[Verse 1]

Well I saw her today at the reception

A glass of wine in her hand

I knew she was gonna meet her connection

At her feet was a footloose man

No, you can't always get what you want

You can't (Always get what you want) Go ahead?

You can't (Always get what you want) That's right

But if you try sometime

You'll find

You get what you need

[Verse 2]

And I went down to the demonstration

To get my fair share of abuse

Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration

And if we don't, we're going to blow a 50-amp fuse," yeah

[Chorus]

You can't always get what you want

No, 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

Ooh, yeah

[Verse 3]

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 to have a soda

What's your favorite flavor? Cherry red

I sung my song to my friend Jimmy

Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was "dead"

And I said

[Chorus]

You can't always get what you want

No, 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

Truly

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus: Mick Jagger & (Audience)]

(You can't always get what you want)

(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

Truly

[Verse 4]

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

C'mon

[Outro]

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, you just might find

You get what you need

[Audience Applause]

[Spoken Word: Mick Jagger]

Yeah!
