n.C.        A  C#m D                 A
I wanted it all---- right from the beginning
A               C#m    D             E
The more that I saw of what could be mine
   D            C#m                      D
So young and so faithful, too hungry and blind
            Bm   E            A
Sure took a fall, I wanted it all

               A C#m D                 A
The side I was on----was where I could get it
A        C#m                D       E
Into the streets where it's easy to use
D         C#m                          D
Taking my brother, getting down on the blues
            Bm    E            A
Sleeping in halls, I wanted it all

Bridge

Bm                 D              A    Asus4    A
Fires keep burning just to become ashes
    Bm                  D                 E      
Esus4     E
You change your mind as fast as lightning flashes

            A  C#m D               A
I wanted it all-----up to the last minute
A              C#m          D        E
I took you for real and you took me apart
    D             C#m                D
Two gamblers felt lucky, one had the cards
          Bm   E            A
After the ball, I wanted it all

               A  C#m D                 A
You're telling me------all what you believe in
A             C#m             D          E
Searching for someone there's nothing to give
    D             C#m                            D
You say I'm empty handed and I don't know how to live
                       Bm  E            A
I don't believe you at all, I wanted it all
                     Bm  E            A   Bm   E
You never knew me at all, I wanted it all
n.C.
I wanted it all
