  E           A       E
I took what I wanted.   But I didn't have what I

E               A                   E
want. Balled up   and sprawled out.   Flame on the seat of the

E                  A          E
couch. Seemingly intangible I cup it, re-

E          A     E
kindle it,   and ward the wind.

I took what I wanted.   But I didn't have what I

E                A               E
want. Balled up,   sprawled out.   Seat's aflame on the couch.

E             A          E
  Seemingly intangible I cup it, re-

kindle it,   and ward the wind.

We clicked,   and I clicked.

  E            A             E       A  B
I pointed, and squinted, and pulled.

          E
And I can never take it back.

I live in this heat, I freeze in it's wrath.

I live in this heat, I can't win.


The only confusing part about this song is the timing, especially during the verses. If 
want to know exactly when to play the chords or hit the vocals, this is what the time 
down to for the first verse:


 1    +    2    +    3    +    1    +    2    +    3    +
                                                   I
 took      what I              wan  -    ted
           but  I    didn't    have      what I
 want      balled    up                  sprawled  out
           flame     on        the  seat           of   the
 couch     seem-ing- ly   in - tan  -    gi - ble       I
 cup  it                                                re -
 kind  -   le   it                                      and
 ward      the  wind


The other verse is similar. Also, I'm not sure if all the lyrics were correct as I just 
them down from listening. But anyway, hope this gives you the hang of it. - Doc Brown
