[Verse 1]
DmBb
Hawaiian tropic, dark and a bottle of jack
DmBb
In the Cadillac as I drive down the highway
DmBb
You aren't coming back and I know that now
DmBb
so I let the wind hit me in my face
CBb
Every man gets his wish, every man gets his wish
DmBb
Your red hawaiian shirt and your hair jet black
DmBb
Hangin' round with your friends by the track
DmBb
Baby, you can't come back from being that bad
DmBb
Just to sit at home, pledge allegiance to the flag
[Chorus 1]
FC
Every man gets his wish, every man gets his wish
DmBb
You told me this, now you're gone
Bb
[Verse 2]
DmBb
Copacabana, yes, in my party dress,
DmBb
I'm shimmering in love on that crystal meth
CBb
A Coca Cola kid, roller coaster child
CBb
You my everything, give me that baby doll smile
[Chorus 2]
FC
Every man gets his wish, every man gets his wish
DmBb
You told me this, where is mine?
FC
Every man gets his wish, every man gets his wish
DmBb
You told me this, were you lying?
[Bridge]
AmDmAmDm
And the Velvet Elvis and the rosaries
Gm
And your white Corvette under willow trees
C7
You the one for me, my one true king
[Chorus 3]
FC
Every man gets his wish, every man gets his wish
DmBb
You told me this, now you're gone
FC
Every man gets his wish, every man gets his wish
DmBb
You told me this, now you're gone
[Outro]
FC
Every man gets his wish (I remember), (Party Dresses) every man gets his wish
DmBb
You told me this (I remember), (Party Dresses) now you're gone
FC
Every man gets his wish, every man gets his wish
DmBb
But sometimes it comes too late
