Wanting Things
Intro: G Em7 G Em7
G Em7 G Em7 G Em7
Tell me how long must I keep wanting things
D7 G
Needing things when I have so much
F#m Am Em7
There are many girls who have much less than me
D7
Day by day, they make their way and find more in life than I can see
Tell me when will I learn to resist wanting things
Touching things that say do not touch
People that I meet seem to think I’m strong
They don’t see inside of me, so they don’t know I’m weak and often wrong
G Em7 Bm Em7
Tell me why must I keep wanting things
Bm Em7 Adim G
Needing things that just can’t be mine
