(Intro)
What the [C] heart wants
The [Am] heart wants
What the [Em] heart wants [G]
(Verse 1)
You got me sippin’ on [C] something
I can’t compare to [Am] nothing
I’ve ever known, I’m [Em] hoping
That after this fever [G] I’ll survive
I know I’m acting a bit [C] crazy
Strung out, a little bit [Am] hazy
Hand over heart, I’m [Em] praying
That I’m gonna make it [G] out alive
(Chorus)
The [C] bed’s getting cold and you’re not here
The [Am] future that we hold is so unclear
But [Em] I’m not alive until you call
And [G] I’ll bet the odds against it all
[C] Save your advice ’cause I won’t hear it
You [Am] might be right but I don’t care
There’s a [Em] million reasons why I should give you [G] up
But the heart wants what it [C] wants [Am]
But the heart wants what it [Em] wants [G]
(Verse 2)
You got me scattered in [C] pieces
Shining like stars and [Am] screaming
Lightning me up like [Em] Venus
But then you disappear and [G] make me wait
And every second’s like [C] torture
Hell over trip, no [Am] more so
Finding a way to [Em] let go
Baby baby no I [G] can’t escape
(Chorus)
The [C] bed’s getting cold and you’re not here
The [Am] future that we hold is so unclear
But [Em] I’m not alive until you call
And [G] I’ll bet the odds against it all
[C] Save your advice ’cause I won’t hear it
You [Am] might be right but I don’t care
There’s a [Em] million reasons why I should give you [G] up
But the heart wants what it [C] wants [Am]
But the heart wants what it [Em] wants [G]
(Bridge)
This is a [C] modern fairy [Am] tale
No happy [Em] endings, no wind in our [G] sails
But I can’t i-[C]magine a life with-[Am]out
Breathless [Em] moments breaking me [G] down down down
(Chorus)
The [C] bed’s getting cold and you’re not here
The [Am] future that we hold is so unclear
But [Em] I’m not alive until you call
And [G] I’ll bet the odds against it all
[C] Save your advice ’cause I won’t hear it
You [Am] might be right but I don’t care
There’s a [Em] million reasons why I should give you [G] up
But the heart wants what it [C] wants [Am]
But the heart wants what it [Em] wants [G]
(Outro) x2
The heart wants what it [C] wants, baby
It wants what it [Am] wants, baby
It wants what it [Em] wants
It wants what it [G] wants
