This is the sheet music, as arranged for choir by producer and songwriter Jack Nitzche, for the Rolling Stones 1969 song, You Can't Always Get What You Want. Recording began in November 1968, with the London Bach Choir performing the choral part in 1969; this is the sheet music for the harmonic background notes. Although popular on the radio, this song was never released as a single, but rather a version without chorus was the b-side to the Honky Tonk Women single. The choral part was re-instated for their 1969 album Let It Bleed.
