[Verse]
G
Now this old Martin guitar
        C        G     Am
Made in nineteen forty-six
     D
It's cracked, it's scratched, it's splintered
                           G
It's a pain to play as you pick

[Verse]
G
But it's been my close companion
      C        G     Am
Since nineteen sixty-two
D
Please don't ask me to decide
                       G
'Tween this guitar and you

[Chorus]
                                      C
What do you want from me, what do you want
D                          G      D
Do I have to give you everything?
            G                         C
What do you want from me, what do you want
D                          G
Do I have to give you everything?

[Verse]
G
Well, all my friends quit drinking
          C       G        Am
You can't smoke nowhere anymore
  D
I think I'll take up smoking
                           G
Though I've never smoked before

[Verse]
G
I'm getting tired of decaf coffee
        C          G     Am
I crave high taste in my cup
    D
Too young to die of boredom
                        G
And I'm too old to grow up

[Chorus]
                                      C
What do you want from me, what do you want
D                          G      D
Do I have to give you everything?
            G                         C
What do you want from me, what do you want
D                          G
Do I have to give you everything?

G     C   G    Am  D
G     C   G    Am  D    G

[Verse]
G
Well, I've unloaded boxcars
       C       G      Am
I sold bibles door to door
      D
Hell, I'd be rich and famous
                       G
If I weren't alone and poor

[Verse]
G
Blessed are the poor in spirit
    C          G        Am
For they'll possess the earth
        D
But the day I hand the world to you
                        G
You'll ask me what it's worth

[Chorus]
                                      C
What do you want from me, what do you want
D                          G      D
Do I have to give you everything?
            G                         C
What do you want from me, what do you want
D                          G
Do I have to give you everything?
D                          G
Do I have to give you everything?
