Verse 1
             B
Baby, we are lying here
Gaug                  B
Pretending that we’re both asleep
           G#m
I can hear your broken heart

And every single breath you breathe
     B                      C#
It’s hard to find the words to say
             B
When we both hurt like this
           F#m
So I close my eyes and pray
      G#m
Time will heal what we’re bound to miss


Pre-Chorus
            Gaug
No one can ever say
    B
Why it goes this way

Chorus

Sometimes what we want isn’t what we get
                                      D#m
Sometimes what we get ain’t really what we want

Sometimes what we want isn’t what we get
          B
Sometimes what we get ain’t really what we want

-
It seems for every one we win
E
There’s another three we lose
                  D#m 
We’ve waited for the answer here
B           G#m
Only just to leave confused
B
You know you’re forever mine
-
And baby, I’m forever yours
F# 
I’ve waited in the darkest rooms
G#m                     B          
Ooh, waiting in the open door
-
          E
No one can ever say
       B
Why it goes this way

Sometimes what we want isn’t what we get
                    E  B                   F#
Sometimes what we get ain't really want we want
B                 Bm       
Sometimes what we want isn’t what we get
                                           B
Sometimes what we get ain’t really what we want


Bridge:
                   D#m
We’ve been so long wishing for things

We just keep forgetting that we
A#m                 G#m
Got all we’ll ever need in you and me, yeah, yeah
You and me, you and me, baby, yeah
- 
Everything  
D#m      F#
we have, anything we got
   D#m
It was given babe, it was given, babe
               G#m               
There ain’t a  thing we need that heaven forgot
   D#m
It was given babe, it was given, babe

Everything we have, anything we got
                   B
It was given babe, it was given, babe

Ain’t a thing we need that heaven forgot
    D#m 
It was given babe, it was given, babe
Everything we have, anything we got
-
                   F#m
It was given babe, it was given, babe
                    F#m          Aaug
There ain’t a thing we need that heaven forgot

It was given babe, it was given, baby, yeah
