be careful what you wish for

[Intro]
  D      G         D        G         D        G
Couldn't wait to ride out of that one horse town
D G
Didn't see no use in sticking around
D G A
I was green and busting at the seams to leave
D G
I was sitting on G, waiting on O
D G
The day I hit eighteen, I hit the road
D G A
Traded that county maintain for a four lane city street

[Pré-Refrão]
Em D G
But sometimes things ain't what you think they're gonna be
Em D G
What you want ain't always what you need

[Refrão]
D
Don't know what you got 'til it's gone
A
And you're out on your own
G A
All you want is what you can't get back
D A
Once you let it go, then you know what you have
G A
Don't hold a candle to what you had
Bm A
Sometimes what you think you'll find
G D Em
It ain't quite what real life has in store

[Próxima Parte]
A D G D G
So be careful what you wish for
D G
She was holding on just a little too tight
D G
Talked a little too much about the rest of our lives
D G A
I broke her heart thinking freedom would set me free
Em D G
Well sometimes things ain't what you think they're gonna be

[Refrão]
D
Don't know what you got 'til it's gone

[Próxima Parte]
A D
So be careful what you wish for

[Ponte]
Em D
'Cause these city lights can't shine quite like the stars
G A
I wish I could wish her back into my arms

[Refrão]
D
Don't know what you got 'til it's gone

[Próxima Parte]
Em A
And you can't get her back no more
A D G D
So be careful what you wish for
G D G D
Be careful what you wish for
