Intro: X2 verse 1: So I hear your rebuilding your life Down in Mexico way To act out your favorite play With your cat and piano   I always new you could play I knew you better than your friends would suggest The one who’s laid claim to being your best Well that’s always the way When you want something   That’s always the way   When you want something you can’t have When you want something you can’t have verse 2: (same chords as verse 1) You were my favourite one But I suppose that’s   Fallen on deaf ears Because of the way that it was left It was in the hands of the gods the sods There an un ruley mob and on there CV   They can now write down theft Chorus: (same chords as verse 1) Something’s they are not for the best And that’s always the way When you want something   That’s always the way   When you want something you can’t have Bridge: That’s always the way   When you want something you can’t have That’s always the way   When you want something you can’t have Same chords as verse 1: I never wanted this to happen this way When do we ever a little time called never Retrospect is such a cruel invention No cruel intentions not a single bad I never wanted this to happen this way When do we ever a little time called never Retrospect is such a cruel invention No cruel intentions I want something I can’t have
