WHAT I WANT

Am             G
What I want I cannot have
Fmaj7               Em
So you've said, and I've decided
Am                G
Torn, conflicted, wars inside
Fmaj7           E5
So you've said, so I've said . . .

Am / / / E / / / Am / / / E / / /

Angry, defiant I stand
Daring you to come and change me
Sure that you won't understand
Unsure how you might rearrange me

Am                 E
And if you ask me what I want
  F          E
I say I only want to see
    Am             E
And if you ask me what I want
   F                C        E   Am
I still want her instead of freedom

What I want I cannot face
So come look for me, come and find me
And if I try to run away
I'll find desire right behind me

Anger wells up in my heart
But I can hold myself together
I must not be torn apart
I must hold it in forever

Hands are raised to tear it down
Arms reared back to throw it from me
I don't know how to get it out
I can sense destruction coming

And if you ask me what I want
I'll say I only want to see
And if you ask me what I want
I still want her instead of freedom

F
Torn and broken
G
Running, staying
Am
Waiting for change in me
F
Always asking
G
Never saying
E                 E7
What I need to be healed and free

What I want I cannot have
Still I want her so very badly
And as desire clouds my eyes
They weep for loss of you so sadly

And if you ask me what I see
I'll say I see myself still running
And if you ask me if I'm free
I say I know that you'll still come for me
