 ( )  x2
   There she  goes ( )
 Little  black dress  on ( )
 Standing  with the other  girls
 Wearing  velvet and  pearls
 Looking  so fine,  so fine ( )
   All the times that she tried to catch my  eye
 Now I hear that she's crushing on another  guy
 Why do we always want what we can't  have
   I never really  wanted,  never really  wanted that  girl
 I never really  wanted,  wanted her  in my  world
 I never really  wanted that  girl, oh but  now I  do
 (Bm G D A) x2
 Never  noticed  how ( )
 A woman's  eyes can  dance ( )
 But from the  outside  in looks like
 They're  dancin' for  him
 Leaves me  wondering,  wondering ( )
   Why is it now I see her in a different  light
 If I could turn back time I would  tonight
 Why do we always want what we can't  have
 ( )  x3
   You better get that girl while the gettin's  good
 There's list of fools that wish they  could
 Why do we always want what we can't  have
   I never really  wanted,  never really  wanted that  girl
 I never really  wanted,  wanted her  in my  world
 I never really  wanted that  girl, oh but  now I  do
 ( )  x 4

([Bm] [G] [D] [A]) x2

 [Bm]  There she  [G]  goes ([D] [A])
Little  [Bm]  black dress  [G]  on ([D] [A])
Standing  [Bm]  with the other  [G]  girls
Wearing  [G]  velvet and  [A]  pearls
Looking  [Bm]  so fine,  [G]  so fine ([D] [A])
 [A]  All the times that she tried to catch my  [F#m]  eye
Now I hear that she's crushing on another  [G]  guy
Why do we always want what we can't  [A]  have

 [Bm]  I never really  [G]  wanted,  [D]  never really  [A]  wanted that  [Bm]  girl
I never really  [G]  wanted,  [D]  wanted her  [A]  in my  [Bm]  world
I never really  [G]  wanted that  [D]  girl, oh but  [A]  now I  [G]  do

Never  [Bm]  noticed  [G]  how ([D] [A])
A woman's  [Bm]  eyes can  [G]  dance ([D] [A])
But from the  [Bm]  outside  [G]  in looks like
They're  [D]  dancin' for  [A]  him
Leaves me  [Bm]  wondering,  [G]  wondering ([D] [A])
 [A]  Why is it now I see her in a different  [F#m]  light
If I could turn back time I would  [G]  tonight
Why do we always want what we can't  [A]  have
