Intro: Em C Em A repeated...
Em C Em A
As you look around this room tonight
Em C Em
Settle in your seat and dim a light
Am C C Em
Do you want my blood, do you want my tears
Em C Em A
What do you want (what do you want from me)
Am C
Should I sing until I can't sing anymore
C Em
Play these strings 'till my fingers are raw
F# F# G# A B C
Ooohh You're so hard to please
Em C Em A (repeated)
What do you want from me
[with the same chords as above:]
Do you think that I know something you don't know
If I don't promise yo uthe answers, would you go
What do you want from me
Should I stand out in the rain
Do you want me to make a daisy chain for you
I'm not the one you need
What do you want from me
C#m G#
You can have anything you want
B
You can drift, you can dream, even walk on water
A
Anything you want
[same as above:]
You can own everything you see
Sell your sould for complete control
Is that really what you need
You can lose yourself this night
See inside there is nothing to hide
Turn and face the light
F# F# G# A B C
C C B A G E (only the bass notes)
What do you want from me
