Chords

As recorded by The Yardbirds (From the 1966 Album ROGER THE ENGINEER) [Intro] A [Verse 1]
A
I want somebody here to tell me why

A
There's always smoke up in the sky

A
Please don't make me want to cry

A
Detail has not been seen

A
Summer trees should all be green

A
Plain and green as they have been

A
Sun don't ever change the scene

A
Please never let them die
[Chorus]
A
What do you want?

A
What do you want?

A
What do you want?

                  G  A
What do you want?
[Verse 2]
A
Sounds which soar above my ears

A
Will naturally precede in years

A
They only cause a flood of tears

A
I want to turn and run

A
Don't need someone to make my fun

A
Only need to see the sun

A
I will not go and cause harm

A
I cannot think that way
[Chorus]
A
What do you want?

A
What do you want?

A
What do you want?

                  G  A  G  A
What do you want?
[Verse 3]
A
Sit spellbound by a flickering screen

A
Watch the ever changing scenes

A
Listen to the rising screams

A
Of children of today

A
Lock your doors and stay within

A
Upon your face the stupid grins

A
Penalty for unrealised sins

A
Committed on your way
[Chorus]
A
What do you want?

A
What do you want?

A
What do you want?

A
What do you want?
