When You Want Something

B

B                      G#m
oh the night is bitter
G#m                       E
the stars have lost their glitter
E
and every day
C#m
takes you farther away
B
From the one to whom
     G#m
your longing heart belongs
       E
So you crawl into the songs
    C#m      E    F#
And hope to find her there

B             B/Bb    G#
When you want something
G#                  F#        C#m
That you know you'll never have
         E/D#
And that wanting is
        E            F#
what's keeping you alive
B             B/Bb    G#
When you lose someone
G#             F#        C#m
that you never really had
         E/D#
and that losing feels like
        E            F#
what it means to die

B                      G#m
oh the winds grow colder
G#m                       E
and suddenly you're older
E
Than that little girl
C#m
Wide-eyed in a wicked world
B
Do you dare to think
     G#m
the promise of your love
       E
was the land that she heard of
    C#m      E    F#
in a lullaby where the bluebirds fly

B             B/Bb    G#
When you want something
G#                  F#        C#m

        E            F#

B             B/Bb    G#

G#             F#        C#m
that you never really had
         E/D#
and that losing feels like
        E            F#
what it means to die
to die
