Ive Wanted You Chords & Lyrics - First Aid Kit

[INTRO]
[G] [Am] [C] [G]

[VERSE 1]
There's this image of you that [Am]I can't shake
That day we [C]drove out to the o[G]cean
So many things I [Am]wanted to say
But I [C]knew it was all in [G]vain

[Am] Life doesn't give you [Em]hoops to jump through
[Am] It gives you tireless road[Em]s to cross
[Am] The sadness came [Em]over me
[Am] So in love, so at [Em]loss

[CHORUS]
I've [F]wanted y[C]ou
For so very [G]long

[VERSE 2]
I've been feeling so inbe[Am]tween things
[C]Sad and stuckin' al[G]one
Even when I'm as high as [Am]I can get
I can't forg[C]et I'm on my [G]own

[Am] Keep thinking I can esc[Em]ape this
[Am] But there are no red shoe[Em]s to tap
[Am] Just endless hauling through a[Em] desert
[Am] And babe there never was a[Em] map

[CHORUS]
But I've [F]wanted y[C]ou
For so very [G]long

[Em] Ooh [C]ooh [G]ooh
[Em] Ooh [C]ooh [G]ooh

[VERSE 3]
All the people I have [Am]grown to love
That I've [C]had to leave beh[G]ind
Because that was the way the [Am]road turned
I'm sorry [C]I have let you [G]down

[Am] You caught me in a [Em]moment
[Am] When I was trying to catch the [Em]wind
[Am] Thought there was some kind of m[Em]agic
[Am] But there's just well-executed [Em]tricks

[CHORUS]
I've [F]wanted y[C]ou
For so very [G]long

[VERSE 4]
This is what time [Am]does to us
We try to [C]fight and never [G]win
There's no plot to [Am]follow here
Just repe[C]tition of the same old [G]sin

[Am] I keep thinking that I've [Em]found it
[Am] A way to fill up the empty [Em]parts in me
[Am] If it's all tempor[Em]ary
[Am] I guess I'll have to wait and [Em]see

[CHORUS]
I've [F]wanted y[C]ou
For so very [G]long

[Em] Ooh [C]ooh [G]ooh
[Em] Ooh [C]ooh [G]ooh

[VERSE 5]
The woman who lives ab[Am]ove me
I hear her [C]listen to the rad[G]io
She loves the old time [Am]stations
They say "[C]Lover don't let me [G]go"

[Am] And I have been there bef[Em]ore
[Am] In that place of desperate [Em]need
[Am] I'm not ready to go [Em]back there
[Am] To wait for someone else to [Em]leave

[CHORUS]
But I've [F]wanted y[C]ou
For so very [G]long

[VERSE 6]
Now I'm turnin' all my [Am]lights down
I don't know [C]where you are [G]tonight
Can feel so close and then so [Am]far away
Within the [C]blinking of an [G]eye

[Am] I convince myself I have [Em]answers
[Am] But I always call my [Em]bluff
[Am] All I have is my [Em]love to give
[Am] Some day that might be eno[Em]ugh

[CHORUS]
But I've [F]wanted y[C]ou
For so very [G]long

I've [F]wanted y[C]ou
For so very [G]long

[Em]Ooh [C]ooh [G]ooh
[Em]Ooh [C]ooh [G]ooh
[Em]Ooh [C]ooh [G]ooh
[Em]Ooh [C]ooh [G]ooh
