Desperately Wanting Chords

(ver. 2)
Better Than Ezra
Desperately Wanting
Better Than Ezra
For Acoustic Guitar


This song is so easy I’m not even going to put the chords in chart form.  
If you think you’re ready to play this song, then you really should know these 
chords already:

Chords:	F	Am	G	C	D	Dsus4

In the first verse, when moving from F to Am, try hammering onto the Am quickly 
then moving immediately to the G chord.  
For all following verses, try to use a more basic strumming pattern.

The only tricky part is knowing when to and when not to sing.

F	Am	G			F
                Past the road to your house
	Am	G			F
 		That you never called home
	Am	G			     F
 		Where they turned out the lights
	Am	G			F
 	Though they say you’ll never know

	Am	G

F		 Am		        G
I remember running through the wet grass
G		C
Falling a step behind
F		 Am
Both of us never tiring
G		  C
Desperately wanting

	F	Am	G


F	Am	G				   F
 		When they pumped out your guts
	Am	G					F
 		And filled you full of those pills
	Am	G			   F
 		You were never quite right
	Am	G			F
 		Deserving all the chills
	Am	G			     F
 		They say the worst is over
	Am	G			 F
 	Kicked it over and ran
	Am	G				 F
 	 	Then they ask what went wrong
	Am	G			    F
 	 	When they turn you on again
	Am	G			F
 	 	They turn you on again.
