Chorded intro: D A Bm G ... D A G
Hope you got what you wanted
Me, I've taken what I needed to know
Things might have been different
But we harvest from the same seeds we sow
And I might have been happy
And you might have been faithful
And I wish we would have lasted
But wishes aren't horses
And beggars, they don't often get to ride
I will still go to Paris, but I won't beg you to be at my side
I will still go to Paris, but it won't be you who's there at my side.
I won't beg you to be by my side!
So we're placing the blame now?
Wouldn't even know where to begin
And it really don't matter -- The priests say
We'll both be damned for the sin
And you might have been happy
And I might have been that blind
And I wish we would have lasted
But wishes aren't horses
And beggars, they don't often get to ride
I will still go to Paris, but I won't beg you to be at my side
I will still go to Paris, but it won't be you who's there at my side.
I won't beg you to be by my side!
You say “What's the great big deal about
Monogamy when there's no doubt
The love that we feel is for real?”
But is the love between us true?
Then keep that love 'tween me and you
'Cause sharing is one thing I won't do.
Yeah, you might have been happy
And we might have lasted
I wish you had been faithful, yeah,
But wishes aren't horses
And beggars, they don't often get to ride.
I will still go to Paris, but I won't beg you to be at my side...
I will still got to Paris,.
I won't beg you to be by my side!
Hope you got what you wanted
Me, I've taken all I needed to know
I wish things had been different
But we harvest from the same seeds we sow.
